This was another test melon for me in 2019. I was impressed by the descriptions in the seed catalogs therefore I decided to try it. After three months of waiting the day has come for the plain truth (at least in my opinion). The small fruits are mildly fragrant, but not noticeably so. They are roughly 3 to 3 1/2 inches in diameter. Seeds fill the center cavity leaving very little fruit after peeling. The taste and flavor are very bland, and short on "sweetness". After reviewing the information in the seed catalogs I can easily disagree with their assessments as to taste, flavor and aroma. Also the texture is not smooth, but more like that of a pear! On a positive note they are attractive and look nice in decorative arrangements. However I would not waste my time and garden space with them in another year.
