The famous French melon--super sweet and very fragrant. Light gray-green skin, smooth round 2- to 3- lb fruit, bright orange flesh. These are top sellers at high-dollar markets. This is always a favorite here. We just love the sweet flesh that is so firm.

90 days. Banana Melon produces a fruit that is long (18"-20") and shaped sort of like a torpedo. Not what you would normally think of as a melon shape. Fruit can weigh in excess of 5lbs. It has blue-grey skin that turns yellow as it matures. Banana melons are smooth with very little netting. In 1889 it was commonly available at farmer's markets in Philadelphia, New York and Boston.
Good late-maturing type. Can stand the sun.
