Mustang Grapes

[Sherri]

Does anyone know where to buy mustang grape plants? My understanding is that one has to plant both male and female plants to have grapes, something that is difficult to identify at this time of year.

Ok did some reading and there called Muscadine grapes....http://www.willisorchards.com/catego...FQMCagodhXGJKw

Thanks. I know places to dig them up, but that means tagging them in the summer for digging in the fall. I want some plants to give for Christmas. They make great jelly, you know! I think the muscadine are "tamer" than Vitis mustangensis, but I may resort to trying some muscadines. You gave me a great source for those.

Have you thought of going out where they are prolific and get some AFTER talking with a property owner. They will probably be most generous. I never see them in stores but I know in Austin the community Garden by the lake has them in "SPADES" and would love you to take a WHOLE BUNCH.
