A charmer from start to finish! First, they catch your eye from afar with their oh-so-pretty, rosy-pink blush. Then they tempt you into a taste with their scrumptious, sugary, cream soda aroma. But it's the intensely sweet, fruity flavor and seedless, tender-crisp texture that just may lead to Tickled Pink grapes replacing your favorite dessert. We guarantee that these grapes have more flavor than any grape you've ever tried—and be sure to try them dried, they taste just like candy! Vigorous, hardy vines are a breeze to grow, with luscious fruit ripening in mid August. Zones 5-8. PP25152.
