Description

The most amazing looking melon you can grow with fruits that are vibrant yellow with brilliant fire-red, zigzag stripes. They are also the most fragrant melons you can taste, with a rich, sweet, intoxicating aroma that will fill a room. Small fruits weigh up to 0.5 kilos each, the vigorous, large, sprawling plants yielding heavily, producing a surprisingly heavy yield of the slightly oblong, baseball-sized fruits, even in dry conditions, as this heirloom came from an Armenian market located in a dry mountain valley.

Sowing Advice

Sow direct when the soil is warm and all danger of frost is past. Sow the seeds in raised hills or rows 3 inches high. Thin to 3 plants per hill 3 feet apart, or 1 plant per foot in rows. For earlier fruit, seeds may be started indoors. Fruit may need supporting.
