Watermelons 'Petite Yellow' / 'Sureness' F1

  • Product number: 312160
  • Origin: West Africa
  • Latin: Citrullus lanatus

Small yellow-fleshed watermelons have the advantage of a shorter growing season, making them more suitable for our climate. This reliable variety tastes fresh and sweet. Watermelon plants also look attractive due to their deeply incised leaves and beautifully veined fruits. Unripe fruits can ripen indoors for a while in winter and are edible in any case, sometimes more fresh than sweet...
