Best cantaloupe I have ever eaten
Reviewed By: Dwayne Lewis (Millington, TN)
I have raised a garden for over 20 years and this is by far the best cantaloupe I've ever eaten. Picked over 200 melons from 10 hills planted.

Move over ambrosia
Reviewed By: donald dowling (Hayes, VA)
Not only does this melon have superior taste and table/eye appeal,one is the perfect serving size for two people. It also slips easily from the vine.

This is what cantaloupes should taste like
Reviewed By: Marty Ross  (Hayes, Virginia)
Our generous neighbor (Donald Dowling) has shared his harvest with us. This is the sweetest, most delicious cantaloupe we have had in years. Grow these again, Don!
