Pollination Info

Grape Muscadine 'Cowart' (Vitis rotundifolia Cowart) Pollination Info

Grape Muscadine 'Cowart' is a self-fertile variety, which means it can pollinate itself and produce fruit without needing another grape vine for cross-pollination. However, planting another grape vine nearby can increase fruit production and quality.

Bees and other pollinators are attracted to the flowers of grape muscadine vines and play a crucial role in pollinating the plants. It is important to provide a habitat for these pollinators in your garden to ensure successful fruit set.

In addition to natural pollination by bees, hand pollination can also be done to ensure good fruit set. This can be done by gently shaking the vines to release the pollen or by using a small brush to transfer pollen from one flower to another.
