• Sugar Baby  - Water Melons  

• Blenheim Orange - Honeydew Musk melon

This is the first year Marie has grown melons on 2a.

‘ there are many reasons why i like being part of a growing community like this - you can learn so much from your plot neighbours. I was inspired to have a go at melons this year afters seeing their success with them last year.’

As the name implies, Sugar Baby watermelons rank as one of the sweetest watermelon available

Like all melons, honeydews grow on very sprawling vines & are considered to be the sweetest of all the types of melons.  High in vitamin C and potassium and are eaten fresh for their succulent, sugary flesh.
