Nursery contributed plant descriptions

This cultivar has a leaf more like a bunch grape and is valuable as an ornamental as a result. This Cultivar produces a black berry with more berries per cluster than usual. Berry size is medium and berry flavor is different from the flavor of other muscadine grapes. Yield is moderate to high and ripening period is from August to November. As with all Muscadines this one is great for canning or eating fresh.
