An open pollinated variety that produces a large, excellent quality melon weighing up to 1.8 kgs (4 lbs). The bright salmon coloured flesh is thick, firm and sweet. The yellowish-green rind is heavily netted and practically ribless. Ideal for local market gardeners. Best grown in soils of pH greater than 6.5 and less than 7.5. If soil is acidic (pH <6.5), apply dolomitic lime as directed.
