Fry Scuppernong Grape Vine – A Classic Bronze Muscadine with Unmatched Sweetness! πŸ‡πŸŒΏ

The Fry Scuppernong Grape Vine (Vitis rotundifolia β€˜Fry’) is one of the most popular bronze muscadine varieties due to its exceptionally large, sweet fruit. Developed by the University of Georgia in the 1970s, the Fry Scuppernong quickly became a favorite for Southern vineyards and backyard growers alike. This female muscadine variety requires a male muscadine or scuppernong vine for pollination to produce fruit. With its high sugar content, juicy pulp, and rich golden color, Fry Scuppernong grapes are perfect for fresh eating, homemade juices, preserves, and classic muscadine wines. This variety is disease-resistant, heat-tolerant, and highly productive, making it an excellent choice for any vineyard or backyard garden.
