Huge | Colorado Heirloom | 105 Days

This large melon, the size of a watermelon, is truly remarkable. Originating in Greeley, Colorado around the turn of the century, it was introduced for purchase in 1915. The melon has a distinctive ribbed skin with a light netting and contains sweet, orange-colored flesh. If you happen to be in Greeley, be sure to stop by Monroe Family farm, who has been cultivating these melons since the 1930s. (Also, take a look at this CPR article highlighting their legacy in producing this melon). For those at high altitudes, take note - High Desert Seed+Gardens were able to successfully produce this melon at a remarkable 6300 ft, albeit towards the end of the growing season.
