| Oh My Goodness! Sweet and firm. Sarah is a keeper--about as good as it gets. I grow for home, not market, but would not hesitate to offer this melon or sale. With Maverick and Wrangler, topped the charts in a 2007-2008 University of Maine Highmoor Farm trials. I direct sow but will consider starting plants in planting year 2011. |

| A very good performer here. The melons are a nice size for making half melon servings. Vines are vigourous and productive. It is not the best that I have grown, but quite satisfactory on all counts. |
