Heirloom Cantaloupe / Melon Seeds

     

🍈 Sun-Ripened Sweetness

Heirloom melons are prized for their intense fragrance and honey-like sweetness that far outshines store-bought varieties. These varieties are selected for exceptional flavour and reliable performance in warm, sunny garden spots.

• Growing: Need full sun and rich, warm, well-drained soil.

• Sowing: Direct sow once the soil is thoroughly warm, or start indoors 3–4 weeks before the last frost.

• Care: Keep vines well-watered until fruit begins to ripen, then reduce water to intensify sweetness. Use mulch to keep fruit off the soil.

• Harvesting: Pick when the stem easily slips from the fruit or the background colour turns creamy/yellow.
