Citrullus lanatus
A dependable variety that produces round, sweet watermelons about 20cm (8") in diameter and weighing roughly 4-5kg (8.8-11lbs). The flesh is crisp, red, sweet and juicy with very few seeds. The thin hard skin turns dark red when fully ripe.
Approx. 25 seeds/pkt
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.
