  • Large, oval, yellow fruit
  • For greenhouse or cold frame
  • Sweet, creamy flesh

An incredibly refreshing summer treat. While it may need a glasshouse to perform in the UK it's definitely worth it. The flavour of this melon harvested from the plant when ripe is unlike anything from a supermarket that has spent weeks on a boat from the other side of the world.

Live Plants

Suttons strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3.
