    Love!

    I loved growing these melons this year. Today is September 16th and I enjoyed my first melon from this verity about 2 weeks ago. My melon plants are now producing abundantly! They grew beautifully in the high desert, and the plants were very heat tolerant. I am in zone 8b and our temperatures reached about 110 degrees this summer. I will now always have these in my garden. Ahéheeʼ (thank you)
