Growing Information

Growing Yellow Buttercup Seedless Hybrid Watermelon

‘Yellow Buttercup’ is a seedless watermelon prized for its brilliant lemon-yellow flesh and exceptional sweetness. Round to oval fruits have dark green rinds with lighter green striping and contain dense, tender, refreshingly crisp flesh.

Start ‘Yellow Buttercup’ indoors for transplanting or sow directly where conditions allow. Plant seeds about ½ to 1 inch deep, space plants 3 to 5 feet apart, and grow in full sun. For best sowing, orient each seed with the pointed end facing down. This heat-tolerant variety includes a pollinator to support fruit set. When sowing, place the pointed end of the seed down.

Ready to harvest in about 90 days, pick fruits once they are fully mature and the bright yellow flesh has reached peak sweetness.

Sweet, crisp, and colorful, ‘Yellow Buttercup’ is excellent for fresh eating.

Very good so far!!

Ordered 15 seeds. Everything has sprouted, with the 4 pollinators. We will see in a few months. They've been planted about a month now and are around 6 in.
