My favourite rockmelon. A large-fruited melon seed providing excellent deep coloured flesh and a mouthwatering flavour. Easy to grow fruit seeds and rewarding, all the family will enjoy.

How to Sow Seeds

Method: Sow 4 or 5 seeds in clumps, later thinning to the two strongest seedlings.
Depth: Drop seeds 12mm (half-inch) deep, direct in final position.
Spacing: Allow 100cm (3ft) between rows and 40-50 cm (16-20in) between clumps.
Growing notes: When the young plants have 5 or 6 leaves, pinch out their growing tips to encourage the growth of side shoots. Grow alongside a trellis or fence if space is limited. Keep the plants well watered, and prepare soil well by adding organic material and or complete fertiliser.
