The Heather Honey watermelon is a mid-early hybrid intended for cultivation in open ground in the central region and the south of the country. The plant is vining with a long main tendril, which promotes active development and abundant fruiting. This hybrid is distinguished by a prolonged fruiting period, allowing harvest throughout a long time.
The watermelon fruits are oval-shaped, smooth, dark green with spiny light green stripes of medium width. The mass of each fruit ranges from 9 to 11 kilograms. The flesh is rich red, tender and very sweet, making this watermelon especially appealing to consumers who prefer juicy and tasty berries.
The fruit rind is strong and sturdy, ensuring good shelf life and high transportability of watermelons. Thanks to these qualities, Heather Honey is excellent for sale on fresh markets and long-distance transportation without loss of commercial appearance and taste qualities.
