Description

Flame Seedless is one of the most famous and widely loved red table grape varieties in the world — the crisp, sweet, brilliantly red seedless grape that helped define the modern standard for fresh eating grapes. Vine-ripened in the summer sun, the medium-sized clusters deliver a clean, pure sweetness and satisfying crunch that genuinely surpasses anything available in grocery stores. Heat tolerant and ideally suited for southern gardens, Flame Seedless thrives in the warm conditions that challenge northern varieties and rewards home growers in Zones 7–10 with generous August harvests year after year. Self-pollinating.

The Famous Red Seedless — Sweet, Crisp, and Beautiful

Flame Seedless earned its worldwide reputation through sheer flavor quality. The medium-sized, brilliantly red seedless berries are crisp and juicy with a clean, straightforward sweetness that makes them one of the most universally appealing fresh eating grapes available. Vine-ripened from your own backyard, the difference from grocery store grapes is immediately apparent — fuller flavor, better texture, and the freshness that only comes from fruit harvested at true peak ripeness.

Heat Tolerant — Made for Southern Gardens

Where many grape varieties prefer cooler summer conditions, Flame Seedless thrives in the heat. Its heat tolerance makes it the standout choice for growers in warm southern climates in Zones 7–10 where summer temperatures can be intense and where cool-climate varieties consistently underperform. August ripening delivers clusters at the height of summer when warm-climate grapes are at their most productive and flavorful.
