Thompson Seedless Grapes is a compact deciduous climbing vine that produces large clusters of green to yellow fruit with a sweet and mild flavor. The large clusters of fruit ripen in late summer or fall. Grows best in full sun and moist well-drained soils. Has few seeds and resistant to cracking.
Thompson is the familiar green grapes in the grocery stores, and the most common raisin. When allowed to fully ripen it earns more yellow tones and sweetens. Self-pollinating.
