A friend gave me a cantaloupe to eat years ago, the Ambrosia. I didn’t like cantaloupe that much to be honest. It became a regular melon i grow every year now. Nothing compares to its taste, sweet and juicy, easy to grow with a little mushroom compost. All the seeds I purchased here have been viable.

Plant these in a nice sunny place and stand back! Great producers of large melons all through the long hot summer with temperatures up to 115 degrees.
