Table Grape Vine - Flame (Seedless)

• Variety: European
• Zones: 7-11
• Pruning: Cane or Spur Prune
• Harvest: July - August
• Fruit: Light red, attractive, seedless, sweet and crisp berry.

This variety is excellent for fresh eating or for making raisins. Very productive with large, open clusters of medium sized grapes that keep very well. Although Flame does not perform well in damp climates, its sweetness and seedless character have made it America's second most popular table grape. Resistant to cracking. Excellent used as an ornamental, for summer shade, arbors or leafy walls.

European varieties are classed as having originated from the cultivar Vitis vinifera and have tight skins, wine–like flavors, high heat requirements for ripening, and are the most common grapes grown in California. Use fresh, dried, and for juices or wine. Susceptible to powdery mildew, they require regular dusting or spraying with sulfur or other mildew control. May grow successfully in very warm sites at lower elevations. They require deep, moderately fertile soils and regular pruning for high quality and production.

Our vines are self-rooted from cuttings, 1-year-old plants, no.1 grade with about 8” of top growth. Sold by individual bare root vine.
