A long, fairly large melon 
with light green color, irreg¬ 
ularly mottled, with dark 
green stripes. The rind is 
quite thick, the flesh pink in 
color and the seeds are white 
with dark tips. It is a good 
shipping variety of striking 
appearance because of the 
contrast between the outside 
colors.
