Description

Thomas Jefferson loved this antique French/American heirloom muskmelon, and one taste of this juicy variety will easily explain why. The texture and flavor are sublime, and it drips with honey sweet flavor. Jefferson grew this heirloom in 1794. It was offered commercially in the U.S. in 1824, and it was illustrated in color in France in 1854 in the Album Vilmorin. This wonderful variety has become very rare. The fruit has netted skin and light green flesh that is firm, sweet, and highly perfumed. Productive plants can be trained up a trellis.

Growing Tips

 Melons prefer slightly sandy, very rich, well-drained soil. Be careful not to overwater vines, especially as fruit is approaching maturity.
