Seraphic (the word) refers to the Seraphs, the highest order of Angels, those who are nearest God. In Hebrew, they are referred to as "the burning ones". In the Franciscan Order, the word Seraphic is used in several contexts, primarily in their Mass association, where people can send in Mass stipends to support the Franciscan missions. It is also used to refer to the Franciscan rosary rosary of seven decades for the rosary of the seven joys of Mary. There is also an Order of sisters of the Franciscan Order who are called Seraphic Franciscan Sisters. See links below.
