Southern Home: This is a hybrid of bunch and muscadine grapes developed in Florida. It has unique oak-shaped leaves and is recommended for use in gardens for its fruit and aesthetic value. Fruit is muscadine-like, medium-sized (5 grams) and has good flavor and quality. Perfect-flowered type (male and female flower parts). A single vine will be self-fruitful. A great choice for Gulf Coast or other low chill area growing. The fruit, which ripens in August through November, can be eaten fresh or used in juice. The berry size is likely too small for use in the commercial market. However, berry flavor and overall quality are good, and the flesh has a nice crisp texture. This vine is highly recommended for home plantings because it is self-fertile, has good flavor, and the cut leaf pattern is very ornamental. It also adds a nice ornamental touch to a home. H.t.
