HomeYou'll never find this rare heirloom melon in your local grocery store. It's too juicy and thin-skinned to survive shipping. But it's perfect for the home garden. The sweet, cantaloupe-colored flesh melts in your mouth. The large, teardrop-shaped fruits weigh 6-8 lbs.
Melon 'Northern Arizona' was brought to Arizona by the pioneers. We obtained our original seeds from John Jeavons many years ago.
Latin name: Cucumis melo
