Small Persian Melon Small Persian Melon Flower of the Small Persian Melon

Small Persian Melon
Origin: Iran and Armenia
Item #: MELON002

Melons of varying types have been known in Iran and Armenia (Persia) since ancient times. Reportedly, there is archaelogical evidence that melons were popular in Persia as early as 3000 BC and had already established themself as an important crop among the Persians. In fact, domestic muskmelons in general more than likely originated with the Persians, as they were not known by even the Greeks, until a thousand years later. Persian Melons have been documented in the United States for the last 200 years. Though little is known about that early history, what is known is that Thomas Jefferson grew them at Monticello and included them in his garden notes for the year 1816. For the next one hundred years, Persian Melons were very rare in the United States until following World War One, after having suffered genocide at the hands of the Ottoman Turks, scores of Armenians immigrated to the United States. These Armenians, many of which who went to live in California, re-introduced the Persian Melon to the United States.

Though they are similiar in appearance to traditional Muskmelons, Persian melons differ in a number of ways from their more popular counterparts. Firstly, due to having been cultivated in the Mid-East for over 5000 years, Persian Melon plants have a much deeper root system than other melons and require much less moisture than others. Secondly, their stems do not "slip" when their fruit is ripe and must be harvested bu cutting their stems, and thirdly, unlike other types of melons, Persian Melons do not typically ripen much further after being harvested. Though some websites devoted to recipes or food may give details on storing unripe Persian melons, for the best results, Persian Melons should only be harvested when ripe.

Persian melons have a green colored rind with delicate netting and fine ribbing and weigh approximately 5 to 7 pounds each. Their flesh is salmon colored, has only a small seed cavity and possesses a very fine, fragrant taste.

Matures in 115 days. An ideal melon variety for hot, dry climates.

Rocky Ford Honeydew Melon
Origin: United States
Item #: MELON003

Rocky Ford is a new Honeydew Melon variety that we are offering for the first time this winter. There are two stories about the development of this great honeydew melon variety. One story, which is well known in the vegetable seed world, states that the Rocky Ford Honeydew Melon was developed by a J.W. Eastwood of Rocky Ford, Colorado in 1881. The other story (according to the Rocky Ford Musuem) is that a Senator GW Swink who was the founding father and also the first mayor of Rocky Ford actually developed the variety.  As can be noted, this variety is named after the home town of whichever gentleman you would like to credit for developing this variety, while incidentily, the town itself was originally named by the great frontiersman Kit Carson who used to camp in the area. In the town of Rocky Ford, Colorado, melons are a big deal and their city website refers to their town as "The Sweet Melon Capital of The World". Starting in 1878 the town of Rocky Ford began holding its Annual Rocky Ford Watermelon Day, which continues to be a city tradition to this day.

Originally, the first Rocky Ford melons were green fleshed and were also known under the name of "Eden's Gem" or "Rocky Ford Eden Gem" in later years, but by the 1920's, commercial orange fleshed varieties of Rocky Ford Melons were also developed. 

The strain of Rocky Ford Melons that we are offering is a true to original type melon featuring a deep, fine grained and intoxicatingly sweet, lime green flesh. Each melon is oval and approximately 5 inches in diameter with a heavily netted and ribbed rind. This is a great old fashioned melon variety that is an abundant and hardy producer of sweet melons for your family. Rocky Ford Melons mature in about 90 days after transplanting, are very resistant to common diseases and will perform well in northern climates. This variety is becoming rare.

Banana Melon (Banana Cantaloupe)
Origin: United States
Item #: MELON006

The Banana Melon is a very rare and a very heirloom unusual melon variety that looks just like a banana!

Some of our online seed competitors who carry this melon like to claim that this melon variety is a fairly recent melon development, however,  Banana Melons were listed in the 1888 edition of W. Atlee Burpee's Seed Annual, who states that the Banana Melon was being grown in the State of New Jersey as early as 1880 or 1881 and had likely been introduced from overseas a few years earlier. The J.H. Gregory Co. also listed Banana Melons in their catalogue in 1885. 

According to U.P. Heydrick in his classic work on melons, squash and cucumbers "The Cucurbits of New York" which was first published in 1937, Banana Melons were being listed in most American seed catalogues prior to 1900. 

This great variety produces an abundant supply of 16 to 24 inch long, tapered, banana shaped melons which are about 4 inches in diameter. Each melon weighs from 4 to 5 pounds. When fully mature, the melons feature a smooth yellow skin with very little netting and an intensly flavored salmon-pink flesh. Matures about 80 to 100 and has performed well for our UK customers over the last several seasons, so it is a wonderful melon variety for cooler climates.

Israeli (Ogen) Melon (AKA Ha-Ogen Melon)
Origin: Israel
Item #: MELON009

The Ogen Melon (called Ha-Ogen in Israel) is an Israeli Melon variety that was developed in the 1960's. The variety was developed on a kibbutz (ie. a rural community in Israel dedicated to a socioeconomic system based on the principle of joint ownership of property). The kibbutz was named Ogen, hence the name of this melon. In Israel, the seed of the Ogen Melon was so highly conveted that it was guarded very jealously and seldom shared with outsiders due to the variety's wonderful qualities.

Ogen produces a large abundance of very fine melons with a smooth, lightly netted skin. The skin changes from a very light green color and matures into a gold-yellow and features a very light netting. The interior is a very pale green with an orange ring around the seed cavity. Ogen melons have a taste that rivals almost any other melon available; a very rich, aromatic and nearly captivating sweetness. Ogen, quite simply, is the best tasting melon you can grow in your garden.

Matures in 85 days.
