Winter Queen Watermelons 
(Also called the King and Queen) 
FIELD SCENE OF WINTER QUEEN WATERMELONS 
BLACK-SEEDED—This variety has generally been known as a Winter melon, 
however, there are many cars shipped from this district during the early fall; they 
are crated in Honey Dew crates and packed in excelsior. Wherever introduced they 
sold at good prices, far outselling ordinary melons. 
The melon is round; color a very light-green, faintly striped with a darker green. 
When fully ripe, closely resembles the Honey Dew in size and color, except the light 
stripe. It has a thin tough rind. The flesh is a bright pink, solid and stringless, 
with a few small black shiny seeds set firmly near the rind. The flavor is delicious. 
GREY-SEEDED—This strain was developed in Utah. We have the originators 
stock. In appearance it resembles the black-seeded variety, however, it averages 
larger in size and is a little earlier. It is a great favorite in Utah and the North¬ 
west. Our seed of both strains are Colorado grown. Every season Winter Queen 
watermelons sell at a premium in this district. 
They will keep nearly all winter and are a great treat when all other melons 
are gone. We advise every lover of watermelons to give it a trial.
