Helpful Info

Summer just wouldn't be summer without this mouthwatering treat! Watermelons are so good, you don't even need dessert! Fruits are a good source of vitamin C. And even small-space gardeners can grow compact varieties. With their distinctive perfume, cantaloupes (also called muskmelons) and other melons turn a fruit salad into ambrosia! Cantaloupes also are excellent sources of vitamins C and A. Give melons fertile soil and warm temps (use black plastic mulch in cool regions), and you'll harvest plenty of large, luscious fruits.
