Crimson Sweet Watermelon
Reviewed By: Tom Sheehan (Sherrill, Iowa)
I have ordered these melons a couple of years now. They have been the sweetest watermelons in which I have eaten and so full of flavor! I have family members already asking about them so I thought that I had better get my order in!

Aggressive little melons
Reviewed By: Daniel (Hendersonville, NC)
I started these melons indoors early in Jiffy7 pots and planted them in the garden early May under plastic mulch. Even without proper hardening, these melons (along with Crimson Sensation hybrids) took to the less-than-ideal soil like a terrier with vines shooting everywhere with large healthy leaves and flowers. Every plant is baring melons which are growing vigorously. Using Fiskar soaker hoses (we're in a drought here) has certainly helped, I'm sure. Overall, I'm very happy with these seeds from Gurney's!
