PANMURE ALL-HEART ‘WATERMELON. 
» Panmure All-Heart Watermelon 
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. At Panmure 
our trial patch of about three-quarters of an acre contained 
more than 3,600 watermelons, of which 3,500 would have com- 
manded the highest market price. New Jersey is a great 
melon district, but for miles around the neighbors drove to 
| see the Panmure All Heart, and were astonished at its superb 
flavor and wonderful productiveness. 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, size etc., is well shown in illustration. Nota single 
one of our customers who grow watermelons should fail to 
| make a trial of Panmure All-Heart this season, as it is sure to 
please the most exacting. We cannot recommend this Pan- 
mure All-Heart too highly for home use or for market.

One of the most popular, early, large 
watermelons grown. It is a high bred Z 
delicious melon originated in the South, by 
Mr. W. A. Kleckley, and is especially cele- 
brated for its fine flavor. It is a long, oval 
shaped watermelon, averaging 18 to 20 
inches in length by 10 to 12 inches in diam- 
eter, with a dark green rind. Of handsome 
appearance; ripens early. The flesh is scar- 
let, very firm, and of luscious quality and 
crisp texture. It is widely popular, and is 
one of the best family garden melons, or for 
nearby market it is a ready seller, but the 
rind is rather too tender for distant ship- 
ping. It gives satisfaction almost every- 
both North and South. Should be planted 
in the garden of all who want a fine melon.

This splendid large melon, as shown in 
the illustration, is oblong in shape. The 
tough skin is very dark green, with still 
darker stripes; flesh is dark red in color, fine 
grained, sweet and luscious, entirely free of 
stringiness. A first class shipper; under 
good cultivation they grow to a very large 
size, frequently weighing from 30 to 60 
pounds, and commanding the very highest 
prices in the market. It is a favorite above 
all others in sections where it has been 
grown. Makes a strong, healthy vine and 
is very productive. It is also one of the 
best melons for home use.
