Melon Grafted Plant F1 Emir

Smooth pale greenish yellow fruits about 11.5cm 4 in diameter, with firm, very sweet, salmon pink flesh. More tolerant of low temperatues than most Cantaloupe varieties so will bear fruit even in cool summers. For growing in frames, under cloches or fleece in the garden and recommended for northern districts. RHS Award of Garden Merit winner. Please note There is a possibility that your plant will include a grafting clip, if it does, this is an integral part of the grafting process and that it should be left in place. As the plant grows it will naturally shrug off the clip. Supplied in a 10cm pot.
