Sweet, fragrant rockmelon you grew yourself, picked at the moment it's ripe instead of guessing at the shop. Hales Best is the variety home gardeners keep coming back to, with fruit around a kilo and that deep yellow-pink flesh.
Give it a warm, sunny spot and room for the vine to run. It takes roughly twelve to fourteen weeks to bring fruit on, so it pays off over the warmer months.
Full sowing and harvest notes are in the tabs below. Want a hand picking the right spot for it? Pop in and ask.
