The moist salmon colored flesh is very sweet and flavorful with a wonderful natural aroma. You really can't duplicate the natural sugars you can produce in a melon from your own garden with anything from the store. Some years we trial melons by starting them indoors and transplanting them out, while other years we try direct seeding them. Size and eating quality can't be beat for so early a melon. If some of you are confused about the difference between a cantaloupe and a muskmelon or a muskmelon and a honeydew, this new melon helps blur all of the distinctions even further, as it crosses boundaries of them all.
Flavor is sweet with that slight fruity pungency that characterizes a honeydew.
Very productive and definitely unique. A great new melon, one you'll have to share with friends and family, though we don't recommend you play football with it. The plants are imposing and attractive and the pods are unique in their appearance. Plant four inches apart, when ground is warm, one inch deep. Plants are about 3 feet in height.
