Price for Package of 10 seeds.
Sakata’s Sweet Green melon is a smaller, softball-sized melon (weight about 500g) with a grey-green skin that turns a yellow-green color when ripe. The shape is not quite round, with a distinct pucker at the stem base. Whereas most melon stems will detach from the plant when ripe, the stem of the Sakata’s Sweet Green melon must be cut from the plant when leaves begin to discolor. The edible skin of the heirloom melon is thin and the yellow-green flesh is crisp and fragrant. Sakata’s Sweet Green melon looks much like a honeydew melon in coloring and has a similar flavor profile. The flesh is juicy with a texture that can be somewhat grainy.
SAKATA'S SWEET
Seasons/Availability
Sakata’s Sweet Green melons are available year-round in sub-tropical and tropical areas with a peak season during the summer months.
