FRUIT Watermelon Early Moonbeam 3″ sqpt

One of the best watermelons for northern climates because it matures early and is tolerant of cool weather. Early Moonbeam sets fruit on shorter, highly productive vines with sweet, lemon-yellow flesh and a thin rind. 5-8 lb. fruit have mostly a light green color interspersed with dark green stripes.

Note: Pollination is also the secret to growing successful watermelons. Plant marigolds next to your watermelon to not only draw in beneficial insects, but to grow a bright-colored garden that wins over any eye.
