Betsy,
I can't offer any firsthand knowlege on the muscadines, though I grew
up with the old Scuppernong and Cowart varieties. Doc Lisenby really
liked 'Tara', and had one sent to me to trial up here in the frigid
northland a year or so before he passed.
I had to dig and pot it up in September before the bulldozer got it,
and I don't know it it's gonna have survived the move.
