100 Seeds Yellow Fleshed Watermelon Moon and Stars is a delicious heirloom watermelon variety known for its sweet yellow flesh and unique starry rind. 🌿 Introduced in 1987 by Southeast Seed Exchange (SESE), this watermelon has roots tracing back to the early 1900s, when it was shipped from Bermuda to Southern United States during the Christmas season. 🌍
The fruits typically grow to 15-35 lbs, with yellow flesh and a rind decorated with yellow stars and occasional moons. 🌙 It is celebrated for its sweet flavor, making it one of the best-tasting varieties of Moon and Stars watermelon. 🍉
This watermelon is disease-tolerant and drought-resistant, which makes it easy to grow in various climates. 🌞 It is also USDA Certified Organic, making it perfect for organic gardeners who love growing heirloom varieties. 🌱
Serving suggestion: Halve the watermelon and scoop out the flesh with a melon baller. You can fill the hollowed melon with melon balls from red watermelon, yellow watermelon, and muskmelon for a colorful and refreshing fruit salad! 🍉🍈
