Product Description
Italian-style cantaloupe combines high eating quality and fantastic disease resistance. Portento Hybrid Tuscan Melon's 3-5 lb. fruits can be picked early when they have a light, pleasantly sweet flavor with a nice crisp crunch. If picked at later stages of maturity, the deep salmon-colored flesh is softer and the honey sweetness and complex flavors really come out. The shallowly netted melons have small seed cavities-so you have more edible fruit to enjoy. This cantaloupe exhibits some the best disease resistance among the melon varieties we've grown-and is a top choice for organic production. 80 days to maturity.
