Delightfully Sweet Flavor

Attractive yellow rind
High sugar content
Good variety for home or market

There's nothing like a homegrown honeydew melon with its meltingly sweet flesh—and Sweet Reward Improved Hybrid Honeydew is one of our all-time favorites. The yellow, round-to-oval, 5-lb. fruits have a beautiful cream-colored flesh with a high brix count of 17—so you'll get lots of sweetness. Its bright, sunny yellow color is sure to attract attention in the garden and in the market. Honeydew melons are a warm-weather crop, and many gardeners get a jump-start on the melon season by starting seeds indoors and transplanting them to the garden. 80-90 DAYS.
