Melons
Halona Muskmelon: Dependable, early and easy to grow even for the melon-challenged, delivering unusual sweetness and muskiness, full flavor with little compromise for the earliness. The 6" oval fruits average just under 3lbs, boasting small seed cavities around thick sweet orange flesh.
Sugar Baby Watermelon: The standard northern icebox watermelon. Among the earliest in its class, Sugar Baby grows 8–10 lb fruits, dark green outside and deep red inside.
Blacktail Mountain Watermelon: Bred to survive the harsh conditions of the Rocky Mountains, an exceptionally hardy and early variety. 8-12lb fruits are dark green, almost black, with faint stripes, flesh orange-red like a Sugar Baby only with a cleaner more pleasing texture, very sweet, juicy and crunchy.
