Description
Tendersweet Orange looks like a classic striped watermelon on the outside, then opens to glowing orange flesh that stops people mid-slice. This heirloom, open-pollinated variety produces large oblong fruits with a sweet, juicy interior and a color that feels like sunshine poured into the rind.
It is a beautiful choice for gardeners who want something familiar enough for the picnic table but surprising enough to make it memorable. Give vines warmth, water, and room, then harvest when the ground spot yellows and the nearest tendril dries.
