Banana Melon
Some years back, we received a letter addressed to “The Banana Melon Seed Company.” As the only seed company in town, our local post office knew to deliver it straight to us. Inside, was a letter written in a shaky script. A man from Texas was writing to tell us how growing these melons restored cherished memories from childhood: the twining tendrils, the color and sweetness of the fruits, felt like time travel to a distant past. It was a tender reminder of the power of seeds.
Try this banana-shaped New York heirloom with a sweet, distinct, complex fruity flavor for yourself next season.
