My horticultural expert informs me that this vine was common in the Jungle and it can be seen on the Jungle Prada Site tour: "That is a muscadine grape vine (Vitis rotundifolia). It's a Florida native plant, and it does make edible grapes, although they are mostly eaten by the birds. When I tell people about why this area was called the jungle, I talk about the live oaks, the palmetto scrub, and the thick muscadine grape vines."
