- Product number: 202520
- Origin: Former Soviet Union

This special melon weighs around 100 grams, is the size of a tennis ball and therefore an ideal size for a single-serving dessert! It's going to be delicious, because (as the variety name suggests) the creamy white flesh is wonderfully sweet and aromatic! And what do you think of the surprising exterior: deep red with warm yellow stripes, a beauty! Grow them in a greenhouse or in a very sheltered spot; letting them climb is most convenient. This variety originally comes from the former Soviet Union.
