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.

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.
