How to Grow Muscadine Grapes in Your Garden

How to grow Muscadine grapes in your garden to provide a delicious fruit for your table and food storage. Muscadine is native to the Southeastern United States and can adapt to temperature growing zones that seldom fall below 10°F. Muscadines have a high degree of tolerance to pests and diseases.

The fruit production will be reduced if the vines are shaded for more than several hours each day during the growing season. Muscadine grapes will survive and produce a crop on a wide range of soils as long as internal drainage is good. Plant failure can be expected in locations where water stands for even short periods after heavy rains.
