Howdy ChikaZ, they are in season in my area right now and seem to last right through winter.


The one at the bottom.

I would love to have all kinds of melons. Watermelons and piel de sapo I already have as all the "normal" ones we can buy in the shops.

I can send you anything you want that I have but piel de sapo you dont have to send me, cause I have.

I could send: Carob, lowquats and maybe a small planted pepino or cutting. Shure something else but not to much still :)

This type of large cantaloupe called giant rockmelon here is very sweet and full of flavour. They can be over 5kg.I am a fan of cantaloupe and think they are one of the best melons and way ahead of all honeydews.

Mike T do you have seeds for trade of this giant rock melon?
I do not have a lot to offer
maybe kiwano ( African horned melon)

This melon is from last season ChikaZ and I don't have seeds. If I see them again I can keep the seeds. kiwanas are in the markets here.
