CARDINAL—The Cardinal grape was developed in 1939 by Mr. Elmer Snyder, of the U. S.

are medium to large conical in shape and not heavily shouldered. They average 
about 1!/, lbs. in weight. Seeds are few and sugar content is high (average 24%). 
The fruit is firm and holds up well in shipping. An excellent table grape with 
slight Muscat flavor.
