A very smooth-skinned melon with a hard rind ripening pale green to ivory-gold and a small seed cavity. The lime-green, juicy flesh has superb sweetness and delightful aroma. High-yielding vines produce large fruits up to 6 lb., 7-9" long and 5-6" wide that store and ship well. Best suited for the South and Southwest or a southern exposure; it needs to be pampered elsewhere. Honey dews, native to Central Asia but long grown in France, were introduced into the US in the 1900s. This gorgeous, lime-green-fleshed melon updates this class with high yields of large, flavorful fruits. Certified Organic Seed.
