SWENSON RED SEEDED GRAPE

(12 customer reviews)

Price range: $19.95 through $25.95

The first of Elmer Swenson’s varieties to be introduced by the University of Minnesota and considered by some to be his very best. The unique, fruity flavour of this firm, meaty grape is like no other. In fact, it surpasses many seedless varieties in flavour and quality, making it an excellent choice where extra hardiness is required. Although it is generally red, it can be bluish in climates with cool nights, but with its high sugar content it can even be sweet while it is green. One of the best grapes for storage, it is ideal for fresh eating and makes a respectable white wine.

    I am neutral on this comment because, I believe this particular vine is dead and did not produce any buds (yet) I will keep watching it and caring for it and hope it sparks back to life! Whiffletree has been a fantastic company to deal with. I highly recommend them!

    Very good and no complaints or problems! All grapevine plants are growing well, delivered in reasonable timeframe as described. I would recommend anyone with similar interests, to buy here. I would also buy again in future, depending on stock availability and varieties.

What is Orchard Grade?

An 'orchard grade' is a tree that may be somewhat shorter, slightly crooked, or a bit scratched, or for some other reason is not a perfect front lawn specimen. These trees will work just as well in an orchard as a first or number one would, since they still produce the very same fruit.

What is a 2 year old tree?

A '2 year old tree' is one that has grown an extra season in our nursery field.

All our trees are planted in the field in the spring as rootstock. They are grafted in August of the 1st year. Most of our trees are dug out in November of the 2nd year. Some trees are in the ground for another season. We dig these in November of the 3rd year. These are considered to be '2 year old trees'.

A '2 year old tree' has bigger roots, a thicker trunk, and more branching (They might start fruiting a year earlier).
