| A very early melon, that was the first to ripen this year. Averaging about 3 lbs for me. It has the most intense flavor of the Galia types that I have tried. Smaller than Arava, which rivals it in earliness, but slightly more intense flavor. melons are uniform and do not show signs of cracking or splitting. |
