Hale's Best is a sweet, quick-growing cantaloupe with disease and drought resistance. This variety was developed by a market grower in California in the 1920s and is still a favorite today.
Melons need good pollination to ensure that you have ample fruit set. Plant with lots of herbs and flowers to bring in pollinators.
Starter will be in a 4" reusable nursery pot.
