Description

One of the most delicious micro melons we have ever tasted! These super early-maturing mini melons from Japan are perfect for growing in the ground, or in pots and up a trellis! Originally selected for storing in tiny refrigerators and other small spaces, this pretty little melon averages 1-4 pound fruit and has an attractive light green skin and blushed salmon-rose-colored flesh. The plants are impressively productive,
and the flesh is super sweet and delicious. It is an ideal choice for the gardener with limited space, for growing on balconies, or for those looking for a gourmet mini melon. In the late 1930s, Mr. Woo Jang-Choon, a Korean-Japanese agricultural scientist, combined the Yamato 3 and Kaho watermelons at the Agricultural Konosu Experimental Station in Japan’s Saitama Prefecture to create the Early Girl (Otome).
