Has an excellent sweet flavor. One melon is about right to serve one person. Brent Loy of the University of New Hampshire did the breeding work on this excellent green fleshed melon. It is quite early, but also large, close to 5 pounds or more, and the flavor is very nice. This is an excellent melon for northern growers.
Flesh is thick, salmon colored, and flavor is good.
If started indoors, you can be harvesting melons by late July. It also seems to tolerate transplanting better than many other melons. An heirloom of great distinction. Still the sweetest melon around. Fruits are 1-2 pounds in size and have a turban at the blossom end.
