Blacktail Mountain Watermelon: A Refreshing Sweetness, Perfect for Northern Climates!

Discover the Blacktail Mountain watermelon, an exceptional variety that offers a true explosion of flavors in the mouth. Imagine red, juicy, and sweet flesh that literally melts on the tongue! Its very dark green, almost black-rinded fruits weigh between 3 and 5 kg and ripen in just 75 days, making it an ideal choice for regions with short summers. Undoubtedly one of the best watermelons that can be grown, it was developed by Glenn Drowns, owner of the Sand Hill Preservation Center located in Iowa. This unique melon has everything to please gardeners, even those located further north, thanks to its earliness and its ability to grow in the sun and heat, even in relatively dry conditions. It is often recommended to use an insect net early in the season to protect young plants from striped cucumber beetles.

Several sources confirm the excellence of this melon, highlighting its bright red flesh, sweet flavor, and melting texture. Its ability to perform well in northern climates is also a major asset. Grow our organic seeds of Blacktail Mountain watermelon and enjoy a refreshing and delicious fruit, even if you are gardening in a region with a cooler climate.

Packaging in French only.
