Abstract

This new grape plant ‘13-29-281’ is new and different because of its very high sugar level at ripening, its very large berry size and good storage characteristics. It differs from other late ripening grapes such as ‘Crimson Seedless’ (not patented) by being much more productive when spur pruned, having less vigorous vegetative growth and having a much larger berry when gibberellic acid is applied to the vine. It differs from the ‘3-14-71 grapevine’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 8,297) by having a larger berry with crisper berry flesh and from the ‘Ralli Seedless’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 9,865) by being much later in ripening with a more elongate berry.
