FREE SHIPPING FROM TEXAS, USA + FREE GIFT

Space saving variety that does very well on trellis. One of the sweetest melon we’ve ever grown.

Sakata’s Sweet melon is a smaller, softball-sized melon with a grey-green skin that turns a yellow-green color when ripe. The edible skin of the heirloom melon is thin and the yellow-green
flesh is crisp and fragrant.

This melon variety looks much like a honeydew melon in coloring and has a similar flavor profile. Sakata’s Sweet melon is often eaten raw similarly to honeydew melons.

The seeds for this heirloom melon were originally released by the Sakata Seed Co. in Yokohama, Japan.
