(80 – 85 days) Brought to Saskatchewan by Russian immigrants, this Watermelon produces small, round fruits with creamy, yellow flesh, thin rinds and exceptional flavour. This is a perfect watermelon for cold climates.

Introduced in 1959, this early-maturing watermelon ripens in just 70 days, and the whole plant and fruits turn a golden-yellow colour when ripe (which makes it easy to tell when to pick it!). The flesh is bright pink – sweet and juicy.

(90 days). .An Israeli heirloom, this plant produces 10-lb fruits with juicy, deep-red flesh and a sweet, unique flavour. This watermelon loves the heat and tolerates drought well, too. Reaches its full potential sweetness in extremely hot summers.

(95 days) An old watermelon from the 1930’s which almost disappeared. The smooth, dark green skin is spotted with yellow blotches. The fruit has a big blotch (the moon) surrounded by smaller blotches (the stars) – very picturesque! The foliage is also spotted. The flesh is pink and juicy, with lots of seeds.

(80-90 days) A very old Russian variety that is perfectly suited for our short northern summers! Fruits are round, 10-12”, with a dark green rind and sweet red flesh. Keeps for several weeks after picking.
