The round, 8 to 12 lb, dark green skinned melons grow 8 inches across. Ideal variety if space is limited, as this can be trailed on trellises and faster to ripen in short summers. Drought Resistant. Ready to harvest about 75 days after seeding in favourable conditions. Can be grown outside in a warm, sheltered, and sunny location, but for the most reliable crops under glass is best.
