Watermelons 'Faerie' F1
- Product number: 312100
- Origin: West Africa
- Latin: *Citrullus lanatus*
A new development in watermelons, with many advantages. Plenty of reasons to reward this variety as a winner in the All-America Selections! The plants do not grow too vigorously and quickly start flowering and fruiting. The surprise begins with the fruit: they are cream with yellow veins, a colour not seen before. The pinkish-red flesh is firm ("crisp"), juicy and deliciously sweet. Due to its good size (19x17 cm and 2-4 kg), the harvest is early and with some protection and warmth, the fruits can also be enjoyed in our climate. In short: a top performer in our assortment!
