How Long Does Muscadine Take to Grow Fruit? Muscadine grapes (Vitis rotundifolia) is a grape that is native to warm, humid climates of the southern U.S. In an ideal climate and with good cultivation practices muscadines can be expected to yield grapes in two to three years.
The earliest named variety was Scuppernong, found growing wild in northeastern North Caroline in 1810 by Dr. Calvin Jones. Scuppernong has become another name for all muscadine grapes. Commercial production of muscadine grapes is essentially limited to the U.S. Southeast. Adaptation: Muscadines are well adapted to the warm, humid conditions of the southeastern U.S., where the American and the European grape do not prosper.
