Muscadine grapes are a native grape to the southeastern U.S. They are quite different than European grapes and have a very distinctive wild and musky flavor. We actually live outside of the range of the wild vines, but I thought I would try growing some in the garden. Last fall I planted two varieties, one called a scuppernong. During the bitter cold days of winter I looked at these scraggly little shoots and thought surely they will not have survived this mountain cold. But there they are today bursting into leaf!
