Black Boulder or 
Black Diamond. 
This excellent shipping watermelon, origi- 
nated in New Jersey; by one of the largest 
melon growers. Knormously productive, 
reaching a mammoth size, of uniform sym- 
metrical shape, roundish to bluntly oval, and 
this similarity of shape runs through the 
entire field. With rich, dark green, almost 
black skin. Flesh bright red and firm. It 
cuts equal to any market melon, and _ its 
shipping qualities are phenomenal, no other 
melon equaling it in toughness of rind; in 
this respect superior to Kolb’s Gem, while 
it is fast becoming one of the leading melons 
for market. It is one of the best all around 
shipping melons.
