Melon ‘Mangomel’ F1 Hybrid

Melon ‘Mangomel’ is a wonderful new kid on the block with mango undertones – amazing! These large, creamy-yellow fruits are full of flavour and so juicy and aromatic. Each plant should produce between 4 and 6 fruits each. For optimum conditions grow in a greenhouse but can also be grown on a sunny patio in the South of the UK or even under a cloche. When the fruit begins to changes from a grey-green tone to its creamy-yellow tones then it is ripe and ready to enjoy. Height: 50cm (20″). Spread: 2m (6′, 6″).

Melons require high temperatures and humidity. In all but the very warmest areas cultivation is most successful in a greenhouse, or under cover of a cold frame or cloche when growing melons in the UK.
