357 Panmure All-Heart Watermelon 



The Sweetest of all; a Vigorous Grower and Exceedingly Productive 



Here we have an entirely distinct variety that is sure to excite the admiration of all lovers of fine watermelons. It is 

 not only of superb flavor, but is all its name implies. Solid as a cannon ball, and while it has a thin rind, the skin is 

 firm, consequently making it a good shipper. Seeds are about the same size as apple seeds ; but, not withstanding this fact, 

 the average weight of the melon is 30 to 40 pounds. The shape, which runs uniform, is well shown in illustration. Every 

 one of our customers who grow watermelons should make a trial of Panmure All-Heart this season, as it is sure to please the 

 most exacting. Matures in 80 days. We cannot recommend Panmure All-Heart too highly for home or market use.
