105 days. Non-GMO. Branco do Ribatejo Melon Seeds from True Leaf Market produce an open-pollinated variety of melon with very sweet, greenish-white flesh and a white, lightly striped rind. The oval fruit typically weighs between 6 lbs. and 8 lbs. Because of its vining growth habit, melon plants should be trellised to promote vertical growth, improve airflow, and keep the fruit off the ground. These heirloom melon seeds come from Mountain Valley Seed Co., a small, family-owned seed company known for supplying premium-quality seeds to both home growers and fresh market producers. Approx. 900 seeds/ounce.
