Description
Crenshaw is one of the most succulent of the cantaloupe type melons. The large 5-9 lb. melons have a spicy fragrance and sweet, salmon-orange flesh. A real summertime treat.
Crenshaw prefers a warm, sunny location with fertile soil. Sow outdoors in spring two weeks after last frost when soil has completely warmed. Start indoors three weeks before last spring frost date. Do not disturb tender roots when transplanting. Water consistently. Harvest when the stems slip easily from the fruit and melons have a sweet, fruity scent.
