Description

An outstanding and super rare all-golden mini melon. Baker Creek had been searching for an all-yellow watermelon for many years. These incredibly small and early-producing melons are just what we’ve been pining after--a rich lemon-yellow color from skin to flesh! Like striking gold, this glorious gilded watermelon was the stuff of dreams and legend. The excitement was palpable as these Asian type, pocket-sized melons began to ripen on vine at the trials. We were thrilled with the vigorous growing habit and productivity; each vine blossomed and provided perfect single-serving fruit of 1-2 pounds, with unparalleled, candy sweet flavor and a crispy texture. The flesh of this thin-skinned little snacking melon is edible all the way down to the rind. It is a perfect home garden or local market melon, as the thin skin is not well suited to long-distance shipping. The vines produce tons of the melons. The vines throw a small percentage of green-skinned fruit.
