Description

Diana watermelon seeds produce beautiful little golden-yellow watermelons with fantastic, delicious, dark pink flesh. Each fruit weighs around 1kg (2.2 lb). They are fast to mature and have strong hybrid resistance to plant diseases. Their unusual colour makes them stand out like gems in the garden. The ripe fruits of Diana watermelon are extremely sweet and flavourful, and have few seeds. Diana scores 10.3 on the Brix scale, which means they are super sweet with complex flavour. When picked at the peak of ripeness, they are just incredible. So much more appealing flavour and texture than can be found in a grocery store melon.
