Colibri Watermelon is an early-maturing hybrid for table use, distinguished by high yield and good storage quality. The fruits have a correct wide-elliptical shape, light green color with narrow stripes, and bright red flesh without seeds. This variety was bred by German breeders and adapted to various climatic conditions, allowing it to be grown both in open ground and on home plots. The maturation period is about 54-62 days, making it one of the early representatives of watermelons.
Additionally, there is a variety of melothry called Colibri — a miniature vegetable plant whose fruits resemble small striped watermelons but taste more like fresh, crisp cucumber with a slight sourness. These fruits are of small size, weighing 2-3 grams, and are suitable for pickling, salting, and fresh consumption. The plant grows quickly, branches well, and can be used for garden decoration, as the vines attach with tendrils to supports, gazebos, and trellises.
Thus, the Colibri watermelon combines the advantages of a classic early-maturing watermelon with bright flesh and seedlessness, as well as the unique qualities of melothry — decorativeness and unusual fruit taste. This makes it a universal choice for gardeners who want to get delicious and original fruits and decorate their plot with an unusual plant.
