Smooth, pale greenish-yellow fruits about 11.5cm (41/2) in diameter, with firm, very sweet, salmon-pink flesh. More tolerant of low temperatures than most cantaloupe melons so will bear fruit even in cool summers. For growing in frames, under cloches or fleece in the garden & recommended for northern districts. RHS Award of Garden Merit winner. Never thought about growing your own melons before? Not sure youd succeed? Well, with our grafted plants theres never been a better time to try! Because theyre grafted, theyre more vigorous & will crop earlier than ordinary plants, either in a greenhouse or frame outside. Our trials have shown that grafted plants are incredibily healthy & give rise to larger strong growing plants giving bumper yields. They'll perform well outside, but are particularly recommended for greenhouse growing, where they'll fulfil their full potential, & allow you to get plants off to an early start in spring without paying a fortune on heating your greenhouse! & they'll continue cropping longer in autumn too.
