Size: 3.5”

Planting Information:

Melons can be planted in the garden after the danger of frost has passed and when the soil has warmed to roughly 50 degrees. Our melon varieties are adapted to the Pacific Northwest but still appreciate the warmest spot in your garden and/or a clear plastic low tunnel for best results. Check out this article from Oregon State University Extension about growing melons in our climate.
