Appearance: Oval fruits with a deeply wrinkled rind that ripens to bright golden yellow. Each melon averages 6" inches across and weighs 6–8 pounds.

Flavor & Uses: Sweet, aromatic, mildly spicy creamy-white flesh. Enjoy fresh, chilled, in fruit salads, or paired with savory foods.

Growth Habit: Vigorous, heat-loving vines that need ample space to spread or a sturdy trellis for support.

Growing Notes: Start seeds indoors 3–4 weeks before the last frost, or direct-sow after frost when the soil is warm. Plant in full sun and fertile, well-draining soil, allowing plenty of room for vines. Water deeply at the base and keep foliage dry.

Harvest Note: Harvest when the rind turns bright golden yellow and the melon develops a rich aroma. Cut from the vine, then store in a cool, dry place for extended keeping.
