Rogoso di Cosenza is a cantaloupe-type watermelon variety characterized by a medium ripening period of 80-85 days. The plant produces large, uniform oval fruits weighing 1.8 to 2 kg. The fruit skin is smooth, golden-yellow, giving them an attractive appearance.
The flesh is dense, white, highly sweet, and has a strong aroma, making this variety especially valuable for those who appreciate juicy and fragrant fruits. The fruits have excellent transportability, allowing them to maintain their quality over long distances.
One unique feature of Rogoso di Cosenza is its long storage capacity — fruits can retain their flavor and quality for 2-3 months. This makes the variety convenient for extended use and distribution, ensuring consistent quality throughout the storage period.
