Have A Look At My Melons

No I didn't, Frank but it is Dutch for pineapple as well!

 

Maybe you couls grow that melon, Glenda--Holland is too cool and wet, but your conditions might be ideal.

 

I will try to get some seeds for them.

 

In Norwegian too.

 

sjoerd, i've never seen a melon with a skin like that! it is really beautiful. did you save the seeds?

here's some info on muskmelons...

we have grown several yellow watermelons, and our favorite is 'Early Moonbeam'...

it works well in cooler climates!

 

Thanks loads Bunkie---you supplied a wealth of info. I shall have a good look tomorrow, as it's late here now. I've had a prob with the server, but it seems to be better now, but I'm gonna hit the sack.
Thanks again.

BTW...I'll look and see if I still have some seeds. I do not think that I do, but I will dig deep into ny seed bin.

 

let me know sjoerd if you have some seed. i have some seed i saved of the early moonbeam i can give you, if you like.

 

I can't find any seed here at home, Bunkie...I shall look in the lottie tomorrow--weather permitting.

 

Didn't find any ...but there is one more possibility.

 

looks yummo!!

 

Bunkie...I was not able to find any seeds after all, darn it!
What a shame, it would have been fun for you to try them.
I must have put the extra ones in the clubhouse with the other partial packs for folks to have. I honestly do not recall what I did with them.
Again, my apologies.

 

that's ok sjoerd! if you ever run across another one like that, keep me in mind, please!

i have saved seed all my life, but never have tried to save true seed. i have been really getting into it the last couple of years. lately, i seem to be saving every single seed i see. it's become a bit of an obsession i tell ya!

i still have some Early Moonbeam seeds if you decide you want some.
