There are also netted varieties, which are green when immature, turning yellow when ripe. Galia is a round, netted, sutureless melon that has green or white flesh. Dark green in color during immaturity, as this melon matures, it will change from dark green to light green and yellow. Green when immature, it turns yellow to orange at maturity. Piel de Sapo is an oval, sutureless, non-netted melon with white flesh.
Exterior color is frog-skinned mottling.
When mature, it will turn from mottled green to golden yellow with green mottling. Green flesh types are round, netted, non-sutured melons. The flesh is green. The outside is dark green when immature, but will develop light green and yellow flecks when ripe. John C. Nye, Dean and Director.
