Melon Angel F1

2003 AAS Edible – Vegetable Winner

An early Mediterranean-type melon, Angel has a heavenly flavor. All melon sugars are scientifically measured as a brix count. Angel measured 16% to 19%, which indicates a very sweet flavor. The 2- to 3-pound melons have a white interior with a crisp texture. Angel helps the gardener know when to harvest. The lightly netted melon skin turns creamy yellow when mature; about 60 days from planting young Angel plants into the garden. Angel vines will spread 6 to 7 feet and are resistant to fusarium wilt races 0 and 2.
