A true French heirloom cantaloupe from the Poitou-Charentes region of western France, this is the melon to fall in love with, or over. Mostly smooth-skinned but can have some netting, the fruits are petite, 2 – 3 lbs and about the size of a large grapefruit – perfect for sharing! Its hard, grey-green skin has distinct vertical green ribbing protecting dense, succulent, salmon-orange flesh that is almost unbelievably sweet and aromatic. Vines are compact and well-kept, perfect for the smaller garden and do well on a trellis.
