Honey Dew 
HE REGULAR HONEY DEW is one of the old established winter melons, 
being introduced from Africa in 1911. It requires a long growing season which 
prevents its being used in northern cantaloupe sections. 
The Honey Dew plant is vigorous with coarse heavy vines. The melons are large, 
weighing from 5 to 7 pounds, and are nearly round. The rind is thin but hard, and 
is smooth with no netting. The skin color is ivory white, changing to a light cream 
color as it ripens. The flesh is a light emerald green and has an exceptional and 
distinctive sweetness. 
This winter melon is a valuable addition to your garden because of its long 
keeping qualities and because of its distinctive flavor. 
Prices postpaid: Ounce 20c; 4 pound 60c; 2 pound, $1.10; 1 pound, $1.85; 
2 pounds, $3.50; 5 pounds, $8.25; 10 pounds, $15.00. 

The Honey Dew is a winter melon which can be held for 
long periods after picking. 
Honey Ball 
HE HONEY BALL is very similar in most respects to the Honey Dew, with 
the exception of size. It has been called a “small edition” of the Honey Dew. 
The Honey Ball has a white, hard rind and a green flesh. It is a small round melon, 
usually measuring about 5 inches in diameter. The flesh is firm and very sweet. Being 
a winter melon, it has excellent keeping qualities and is a splendid shipper. 
Because the Honey Ball is very prolific, care should be taken in planting to see 
that the plants are not too closely grouped. Close planting and the natural prolificness 
of the Honey Ball might result in too small a melon. 
If you have never grown the Honey Ball then you have a unique experience 
ahead of you. We suggest that you try this long keeping, sweet winter melon. 
Prices postpaid: Ounce, 15c; 14 pound, 50c; 14 pound, 90c; 1 pound, $1.50; 
2 pounds, $2.85; 5 pounds, $6.60; 10 pounds, $12.00.
