Cantaloupe 'Tarpeta' / 'Torpedo' (?)

We bought these rare seeds from Joseph Simcox, the 'Botanical Explorer,' who travels the world to popularize regional vegetables and thereby save them from oblivion. We assume that the Tarpeta variety is derived from Torpedo, as that is a variety well-known in its places of origin, Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan. Melons from that region taste exceptionally good and are highly sought after, but... are endangered because growers are switching to modern F1 hybrids with a recognizable shape. Tarpeta produces very large fruits with an elongated shape, like a kind of torpedo...

Cantaloupe or Net melon (Reticulatus group) Vining, with a musky aroma and scent, lobed and (often) heart-shaped leaves. The flesh is orange or green, and the skin is always netted. Cantaloup (Dutch: Kanteloep) is the French spelling for the Italian Cantaluppi, the popes' estate, where in the early Middle Ages, melons from the then accessible world were collected and cultivated.
