MELON 'Banana'

Oval melons with yellow skin and insides - cut slices look like bananas -  and incredibly fragrant, sweet orange flesh that even smells a bit like bananas! A farmers' market favorite heirloom specialty melon since 1885. Vines produce 3-6 fruit each, 5-8 pounds per fruit. Longer shelf life than other melons, and thinner skin so more of the melon can be eaten. Vines grow quite fast and are compact. 85 days.
