The skin of this watermelon is darkest dark green, which contrasts beautifully with its vivid red flesh. In warmer areas of the UK this can be grown outdoors, but will perfom best in a greenhouse or polytunnel. The sweet, crisp flavour of this heirloom is hard to beat and the fruits are a really great medium size.
Average 10 seeds.

Sow indoors in late spring. Sow 1cm deep in small pots using peat free compost. Keep moist at all times. Keep temperatures above 21C, germination usually takes 6 to 10 days. Grow on in good light at around 15 to 18C before planting out when all risk of frost has passed.
Will perform best in an unheated greenhouse or polytunnel. Soil and air temperatures must have warmed up and all risk of frost passed. Train your melons with sturdy support or even over an arch as this is a smaller variety.
