Two you might consider: Swenson Red has been pretty reliable seeded; its flavor can win over people who insist on seedless. Petite Jewel has small berries and mostly seedless; looks like it's coming in with a good crop this year.
My favorite for disease resistence, production & vigor is St. Croix, another
of the Swenson varieties.
Here in zone 7 I like Champanel and consider it to be more disease resistant
than the concord. I still like Niagara and Fredonia
Thanks for the suggestions, everyone. I'll give these a close look. As I say, I'd like to get a variety of tastes and ripening times, if possible.
