    Grapes

    If you're interested in growing grapes in Florida, then look no further than the muscadine grape, native to our state and other areas of the Southeast.

    Sometimes called scuppernongs, these grapes are popular because they have a high degree of tolerance to pests and diseases and can be grown with minimal or no use of pesticides.

    Muscadines differ from the bunch grapes found in the produce section of the supermarket in that they are thicker-skinned, somewhat spicy-sweet, and are picked individually from the vine rather than in bunches.
