85 days. A popular heirloom developed around 1920 by a Japanese market grower in California. Sweet, smooth orange flesh. A good flavored muskmelon. Photo and text courtesy of Baker Creek.
Care: Space 3-5′ apart in all directions. Melons need heat and well-drained soil: plant in full sun in raised beds or hills.
