    The most common way to eat seagrapes is as like all other grapes. Quick ID: Tree up to 40 ft., but generally small tree or large shrub. Leaves are thick and heart-shaped from 3 to 10 inches. New foliage is smooth and brown or bronze in color. Flowers grow in clusters. Fruit resembles grapes and are dark red or purple and ripen throughout summer.

    We have recently found that sea grapes are medicinal. We drink a tea from the leaves which quickly lowers Blood Pressure. I've been using it now for 3 weeks or so with great results.
