Superstar Indeed!
Reviewed By: Tamara (Plano, TX)
I have been planting this melon every year from the same packet of 2003 Gurney seeds, believe it or not. Given adequate space, they produce huge, very tasty melons with few, if any, problems. Two thumbs up.

The Best Overall Cantalope
Reviewed By: Shawn (McBain, Michigan)
These are large cantaloupes with very sweet and large enough to feed a family with one of them. They are easy kept for a couple of days after harvest with the same great taste.
