This ancient melon produces deliciously fragrant and sweet fruits with melting flesh. In our Brussels climate, it thrives when grown under cover, in a tunnel, or against a well-exposed wall to ensure it gets the heat needed for ripening.

Originally from the Pajottenland region, this variety symbolizes the resistance of heirloom seeds against standardization. In permaculture, we try to recreate microclimates: our trick is to place a large dark stone at the base of the plant. It will store the sun's heat during the day and release it at night, naturally boosting the sugar content of your melons.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOur prices: \u003c\/strong\u003eFor each of our plants, we offer 2 prices.
