Watermelons 'Desert King'
- Product number: 312060
- Origin: West Africa
- Latin: *Citrullus lanatus*
A large watermelon that can weigh 5-9 kg! The light green, dull rind is very resistant to sun exposure, and although each fruit fills up with water, the plant is also very drought-resistant, so you can safely go on holiday from time to time... The sweet, orange-yellow flesh is very popular and the fruits can be stored for a long time. A nice watermelon to grow in a greenhouse.
