Abundantia (Dam.). Certainly the most 

 prolific. The oval shaped medium sized 

 slightly ribbed fruits of a bright yellow 

 colour are white fleshed and of a most 

 delicious flavour. One of the earliest sorts 

 and for this reason well suited for northern 

 countries. The plant produces such a 

 number of fruits that all the ground is 

 covered with them , , . per OZ — /2 



Cilento (Dam.). Of oval shape, smooth 

 dark green skin and medium size. The 

 flesh is greenish, almost white of quite an 

 excellent flavour and very sweet. It keeps 

 very well and may be kept in a dry and 

 airy place (without frost) for many months ; 

 its seeds are unlike any of other melons. 

 Highly to be recommended all the more 

 as it is very productive . per oz — /2
