This collection is comprised of 5 components.
Watermelon 'Sweetheart' Hybrid
5715.
85 days. Sweet, firm red flesh is bursting with great taste and crisp texture. These round, 8- to 9-inch-diameter melons are the ideal size for your icebox -- about 8 to 10 pounds. Early and high-yielding, the vigorous vines are trouble-free in the garden. These melons are almost perfectly round, ripening in early midseason. Pkt is 10 seeds.
Qty 1 PKT P1 Seeds.
Cantaloupe 'Park's Whopper' Hybrid
5525.
77 days from setting out transplants or 91 days for direct sow. Enormous 6 to 8 pound melons with juicy-sweet taste even in short-season areas! Park's Whopper grows quickly, bearing plenty of open-netted melons with firm, thick peachy-orange flesh. They are Whoppers in size, flavor and harvest speed. Vigorous plants are resistant to Fusarium races 0, 1, and 2, as well as Powdery Mildew races 1 and 2. Pkt is 25 seeds.
Qty 1 PKT P1 Seeds.
Watermelon 'New Queen' Hybrid
5488.
75 days. Every single AAS judge noted the outstandingly sweet flavor of this gourmet-quality icebox melon, awarding it top honors for flavor. The rind is thin, with a light green base overlaid with thick dark green stripes. And the flesh is a most unusual bright orange, with a thin ring of black seeds! Just 5 to 7 pounds, this is called an "icebox" type because it actually fits in the crowded fridge. Pkt is 10 seeds.
Qty 1 PKT P1 Seeds.
Watermelon 'Moon & Stars'
5481.
100 days. Probably the most beautiful -- and unusual -- watermelon ever grown, this heirloom is also one of the sweetest! Most of the fruit is 25 to 30 pounds, but the occasional over-achiever balloons up to 50, protecting the succulent juiciness of its bright red flesh with a deeply-ridged, very thick, beautifully speckled rind! The foliage bears the same markings! Pkt is 25 seeds.
Qty 1 PKT P1 Seeds.
Cantaloupe 'Scoop II 'Hybrid
5070.
69 days from setting out transplants. This "new" Scoop is even sweeter, and there's a bit more of it, thanks to a greatly reduced seed cavity on these 6-inch melons. Intensely fragrant and just as powerfully flavored, it has a very high sugar content but is never watery; the flesh stays firm and so succulent. Highly disease-tolerant vines produce a very generous harvest, finishing in just 69 days so that you can begin the cantaloupe season about a week earlier than with most other varieties. Pkt is 25 seeds.
Qty 1 PKT P1 Seeds.
