3. American Varities

4. Flame seedless
• Light red, crisp, sweet
fruit. Good for fresh
use, or makes good
raisins. Good vigour and
productivity. In USA it
ripens late July to early
August. The standard
red grape found in
supermarkets.

5. Black Monukka:
• a purplish-black grape that,
except for colour, is similar in
most respects to Thompson
Seedless. Although it is hurt by
temperatures that go below -
23 °C, it recovers well and is
well worth keeping due to it's
very high fruit quality.
Although a very old variety it is
one of the best eating grapes.
Berries are large with tender
skin. Bunches are medium-
large and loose. Flavour is
crisp and sweet. Cane or spur
pruning.

6. Canadice:
• early ripening, more winter hardy
than most seedless grapes, although
trunk injury has occurred on some
sites. It produces medium (6" - 8")
clusters with small red berries that
have a spicy grape taste. Excellent for
fresh use, good for juice, jelly, and
wine.
Vigorous grower; sets lots of fruit
reliably. With cordon training systems
and careful management, vines can
be extremely productive. Fruit rot is a
problem in wet years because the
clusters are excessively compact.
Bunch weight = 227 gm. Berry weight
= 1.6 gm

7. Vanessa:
• early ripening. Developed by HRIO,
Canada, and is a red dessert grape of
excellent quality. The vine is
moderately vigorous and among the
hardiest of seedless grapes. Grafting
may be desirable on many sites to
increase vine size (vines grafted on
5C at trials in Fredonia, New York,
however, have shown poor fruit set
with very small berries). The seed
remnant is usually large and soft;
when noticeable it is sometimes a
cause for limited marketability. Deep-
red berries are oval, medium in size
on medium-loose well-filled clusters.
The flavour is mild and fruity. Berry
texture is firm and resists rain.
Storage potential is good. The fruit
quality is among the best of the red
seedless types

8. Thompson
•
The one you see in the
grocery store—a snack
time favorite. Unbeatable
for fresh use! Pale green
fruit is sweet and
delicious, with no bitter
aftertaste. Dependably
productive vines average
20-30 clusters apiece

9. Ruby Seedless
• The ruby seedless has a
richer, deeper color
than the Flame, but the
grapes are smaller, with
a shape like a Pearlette.
They have a tougher
skin and less flavor than
Flames. They're the last
of the season for
seedless grapes.

10. Red Seedless
• Red seedless grapes, which
come on the market after
Thompsons, are becoming
one of the most popular
grapes around. The Red
Flame variety is relatively
new, but it may soon
surpass Thompsons in
popularity. A cross between
the Tokay (a seeded grape)
and a round seedless, Red
Flames are firm and sweet,
with a very good crisp
texture.

11. Black beauty
• Black Beauty is a new
variety of seedless grape
with a relatively short
season. It doesn't have
quite the flavor that the
other varieties do. The
Chilean black seedless
grapes are better than
those we get from
California. Domestic black
grapes are available in June
and July, while Black
Beauties from Chile are
available in mid-winter

12. Muscat Grapes
• Muscat grapes range
from a pale green
(almost white) color to
a deep, deep purple
(almost black) color.
They are often thought
of as a wine grape, but
they make tasty table
grapes too

13. Autumn Royal Grapes
• These large seedless
grapes are in season
throughout the fall

14. Europian Varities

15. Beauty Seedless
• Beauty Seedless: blue-
skinned, seedless, small to
medium-sized, oval fruit
with firm flesh and spicy
flavor. Beauty Seedless is
an early-season black
seedless table grape
developed and released by
H.P. Olmo at the University
of California, Davis in 1954.
Formerly known and tested
as K 5-69, the cultivar
resulted from the cross of
Scolokertek kiralynoje x
Black Kishmish

16. Candice
• Candice: red-skinned,
seedless, small, oval
fruit with juicy flesh and
mild red grapey flavor.
Ripens mid-season.

17. Red Flame Grapes (a.k.a. Flame Tokay Grapes)
• Red Flame Grapes are
seedless, crunchy, and
have a nice sweet-tart
balance.

18. Cardinal
• Cardinal: red-skinned,
seedless, large fruit that
is round to elongate
with firm, crisp fruit
with a Muscat-like
flavor. Ripens early, late
spring to mid-summer

19. Black Monukka Grapes
• Black Monukka Grapes
are used for raisins, but
are also a crisp, sweet
table grape. Their thin
skins, however, mean
they aren't great for
shipping. Look for them
fresh at markets or try
growing your own.

20. Concord
• Concord: purple-black
skinned medium to
large, round fruit with
juicy flesh, sweet near
the skin and tar near
the seeds. Use for
dessert, juice, and jelly.

seedless. Ripens mid-
season

21. Fantasy Seedless
• Fantasy Seedless: blue-
black skinned, seedless,
large oval fruit that is
firm and very sweet.
Ripens mid-season.

22. Italia Muscat:
• yellow green-skinned,
seeded, very large fruit
with tender juicy flesh
with a heavy, sweet
muscat flavor. Ripens
midseason, late
summer through late
fall.

23. Marroo Seedless
• Marroo Seedless: blue-
black, seedless,
medium-sized fruit with
firm, juicy flesh and
sweet, mellow flavor.
Ripens mid-season.

24. Ribier
• Ribier: purple-blue
skinned, seeded, large
to very large, plump,
round fruit with sweet
juicy flesh with mildly
astringent skin. Ripens
mid-season.

25. Ruby Seedless:
• red-skinned, seedless,
medium-sized, oval fruit
with firm, crisp, juicy
flesh that is sweet tart
taste. Ripens late mid-
season, late summer to
early winter

26. Red Globe:
• red-skinned, seeded,
very large, round fruit
with firm flesh with
mild, sweet flavor.
Ripens mid-season, fall
to mid-winter.
