Market Surprise Cantaloupe 
This melon was developed for the market gardener who wants an extra large, 
early maturing, well netted cantaloupe to sell at roadside stands and for bulk 
hauling in trucks; if it were packed, would run largely to nine pack jumbo flats. 
For trade desiring size and quality included, this melon is unsurpassed; has 
nearly a solid net, showing very little of the distinct stripe. 
The flesh is thick and of a deep salmon color with small seed cavity. Should 
not be picked until it will slip freely from the vine because of its firmness after it 
is a golden color.
