than Honey Dew with a beautiful golden colored rind. A California 
grower recommends it as mildew resistant. Color of rind rich golden, 
flesh green, quality excellent, sweet and delicious. Picked full slip 
it keeps a long time. 25 cars shipped in 1933 from Rocky Ford to 
New York sold for twice the price per crate realized from the orig¬ 
inal Honey Dew. 
This new melon is not fully true to type but it has proven a 
money maker and we hope in a very few years to have fixed the 
type to that of the deepest fleshed, finest flavored melons. At present 
some of the melons have thinner flesh than desirable. Outside 
appearance, size and color are quite uniform. 
Arizona growers will find Golden Honeymoon withstands heat 
better than Honey Dew. 
The rind turns yellow when the mSlon is two-thirds grown. Do 
not pick until they slip from the vine with slight pressure. 
Every melon grower should plant some of this melon.
