One of my favorite summertime pleasures is eating a cold slice of watermelon on a hot day. For dessert or just a snack this smaller watermelon with its crisp, sweet red flesh hits the spot every time.
Space saving, round melons average 8" across and are a perfect fit for your refrigerator. Dark green, almost black melons have fine-textured, medium-red flesh and that unmistakable crisp, mouthwatering, sweet rich watermelon flavor. Vines grow to 6 feet and set 4-6 melons that average 10-12 pounds. Plant in raised rows or hills leave 3 feet between plants. Allow room for vines to run and make sure to water during hot, dry periods.
