Citrullus lanatus
It's back... this long-time favorite will delight with its sweet orange flesh. Oblong shape. Weighing in at 7kg (15 lb.) size and greater! More than a novelty, this variety will compete with any watermelon on sweetness and taste.
How to Grow
Very similar to cantaloupe and muskmelon. Seeds require 5-10 days at a soil temperature of 24C (75F) to germinate - any lower and germination will be inhibited. Sow 6-8 seeds per hill, 12mm (1/2") deep in hills spaced 1.8-2.4m (6-8') from each other. Thin to 3-4 plants per hill. Never let the plants lack for water.
Approx. 20-30 seeds/pkt.
