Seagrape (Coccoloba uvifera)

• Florida Native Coastal Icon: Seagrape is a rugged native shrub or small tree prized for its large, round, leathery leaves that emerge with a reddish tint and mature to glossy green with striking red veining.

• Big, Beach-Ready Presence: Can reach 35-50 feet tall and 20-30 feet wide at full maturity, though it is easily kept smaller and denser as a hedge or screen with regular pruning.

• Spring Blooms & Fall Fruit: Small cream flowers appear from spring through summer, followed by grape-like red-purple fruit that ripens in fall and is edible for both people and wildlife.

• Beach-Tough & Low-Maintenance: Once established, this native is highly drought tolerant with outstanding salt and wind tolerance, making it a favorite for coastal and beachside landscapes.

• Versatile Landscape Use: A go-to choice for dune stabilization, windbreaks, privacy screens, and informal hedges in coastal and inland yards alike.

• Sun & Soil: Performs best in full sun to partial shade in sandy, well-drained soil.

• Cold Weather Note: Hardy in USDA zones 10a-11; protect from hard freezes.

Key Features

Florida native with large, round, leathery evergreen leaves showing red veins, clusters of cream flowers, and edible purple-red fruit; can be grown as a shrub, hedge, or small tree.

Special considerations

Highly salt and wind tolerant; excellent for dune stabilization and beachfront plantings. Dioecious - only female plants bear the edible grape-like fruit.

Growing and Care Instructions

Seagrape thrives in sandy, well-drained soil and tolerates salt spray, making it ideal for coastal landscapes. Prune to maintain shape as a hedge, screen, or small tree; protect young plants from frost.

  • Fertilizing

    Fertilize 2-3 times per year during the growing season with a balanced fertilizer.

  • Watering

    Water regularly until established; very drought tolerant thereafter.

  • Light Requirements

    Full sun to partial shade.

Healthy, full, and worth recommending

I have filled my greenhouse with many kinds of tropical fruit trees over the years.

The trees I received from Everglades Farm were the healthiest, fullest, and best packed I have seen. They arrived with beautiful green leaves, strong branching, and much better packaging than other vendors I have tried.

I highly recommend Everglades Farm and was very impressed with the nursery.

Thank you so much!
