A succulent, honey-sweet beauty with dense, candy-like flesh—this rich, classic Japanese-style cantaloupe is the result of years of careful selection and refinement at Baker Creek. We spent multiple seasons stabilizing and selecting this variety for flavor, texture, and uniformity. The result is a deeply flavorful melon with medium-green, ultra-sweet flesh and a firm rind that allows the fruit to store well for weeks. Fruits are medium-sized, beautifully shaped, and typically quite uniform, with moderate netting that can vary slightly. Vigorous, productive vines yield loads of these long-keeping, high-quality melons. Certain to be loved by chefs and specialty markets, Sugar Dew is our top pick for flavor, storage, and all-around excellence—a refined classic that’s sure to win over even the most seasoned gardener.\u003cstrong\u003e Due to a lower germination rate of 54%, we’re including extra seeds in each packet to ensure a full planting.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrowing Tips:\u003c\/strong\u003e Thrives in fertile, well-drained soil and benefits from full sun and warm temperatures.
