Nothing says summer like watermelon, and everybody wants a sweet slice. Sweet Beauty offers consistently sweet flavor and crisp texture. It was praised by AAS Judges for its superior eating qualities. Sweet Beauty melons are 5 to 7 pounds, an oblong shape with dark green skin and medium green stripes. Described as an “ice box” type, it means Sweet Beauty is a single-serving size. Improved for earliness, Sweet Beauty melons can be harvested in about 77 to 80 days from sowing seed directly into the garden. The vigorous plant spreads vines about 8 to 10 feet.
