Sugar Baby Watermelon Benefits

  • Produces 6-10 lb. fruits
  • Popular heirloom variety
  • Baby Watermelons are known for compact vines
Love homegrown watermelon, but don't have lots of space? Sugar Baby Watermelon saves space in the garden. The only thing oversized about our sweet Baby Watermelons is its flavor—incredibly rich and sweet. Its compact vines produce plenty of 6- to 10-lb. fruits packed with sweet red-orange flesh.

Sugar babe watermelons are a perfect size for smaller families—and easy to fit into the refrigerator. The fruits have thin, tough rinds that become almost black when ripe. This heirloom variety was introduced in the 1950's and is widely adapted throughout many parts of the United States. It takes sugar baby watermelons 85 days to mature.
