Vitis mustangensis
Mustang grape is a woody, climbing grape vine native to the southern United States and northeastern Mexico, grown for its fruit used in jelly, juice and wine. It is dioecious, so only female vines bear fruit, and it needs both sun and room to climb.
Vitis mustangensis, commonly known as the mustang grape, is a species of grape that is native to the southern United States. Its range includes parts of Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana, Texas, and Oklahoma.
The fruit can be potentially irritating to the skin when handled, and are mildly unpleasant to eat raw because of bitterness and a high acidity content, however consuming the sweet inner flesh apart from the skins is common.
