Golden Delicious Cantaloupe, Heirloom Seeds β€” The Early-Ripening, Highly Aromatic Cantaloupe With Deeper Orange Flesh Than the Rest

Golden Delicious (Cucumis melo) is an early-ripening, great-yielding cantaloupe with fruits weighing 2–4 pounds. Thin skin and a small seed cavity. Deeper orange flesh than other cantaloupes β€” highly aromatic and sweeter than most. An excellent choice for home gardens and market growers, and a top performer in cooler climates. 80 days.

Why Grow Golden Delicious?

  • Deeper orange flesh than other cantaloupes β€” highly aromatic and sweeter
  • Early-ripening β€” excellent for short seasons and cooler climates
  • Thin skin, small seed cavity β€” more flesh per fruit
  • Great yields β€” reliable and productive for home and market
  • Open-pollinated heirloom β€” save seed year after year
