These two types have given rise to a variety of other melons. The ' Cantaloupe ' is another name for muskmelons. The muskmelon name came from the fact that they give out a faint, musky perfume. Another type of melon is the ' Casaba ' melon, which is quite large, with smooth, yellowish-green rinds. They are known for their late ripening schedule and low chances of spoilage.
Watermelons are highly refreshing and beneficial for the body during summer-time.
