Rated 4.7 out of 5
SKU 0246 Categories: ,

Melon Charentais Cantaloupe is a classic French variety, valued for its exceptional aromas and sweetness. The fruits are small to medium-sized, usually heavy 1–1.5 kg, with slightly ribbed, light gray-green shell, which upon ripening gets soft orange hue. The meat is bright orange, very juicy and fragrant, with a rich, sweet flavor that is considered the benchmark of quality among melons.

The plant has medium lush, creeping growth and thrives best on sunny and warm locations with well-drained soil. The variety is medium early, and the fruits ripen approximately 80-90 days from sowing. Cantaloupe di Charentais is ideal for fresh use – in fruit platters, as a refreshment or for elegant summer dishes.
