BUCHANAN’S WATERMELON SEEDS | 
227—BLACKLEE (87 days)—Originated at the Florida Agricultural Experiment 
Station, and after many and varied tests has proven of superior quality and to be 
almost completely resistant to wilt. Shape is long oval, very symmetrical and 
smooth. Color, dark, rich green. Flesh brilliant red, very sweet and crisp; seed 
black—a most attractive and pleasing color combination. Cuts solid, free from 
stringiness and has a delicate inviting aroma and distinctive flavor. Try this 
unusual melon. Seed supply limited. 
Pkt., 10c; 0z., 30c; 2 ozs., 50c; 14 Ib., 95e; 1% Ib., $1.75; 1 lb., $3.25 
231—LEESBURG (Wilt Resistant) (85 days)—It is almost immune to wilt. This 
desirable strain was developed from Kleckley’s Sweet and retains its outstanding, 
delicious flavor. However, it has better shape, uniformity, and on account of its 
thin, hard, tough rind, is an ideal commercial melon. It is vigorous and productive 
and because of its deep root system continues to bear under adverse weather con- 
Se tad flesh is a rich reddish pink with no trace of white hearts: sweet 
and tender. 
Pkt., 5c; 0z., 20c; 2 ozs., 35c; 14 Ib., 60c; 1% Ib., $1.10; 1 Ib., $2.00 
240—BUCHANAN’S IMPROVED CUT RED TOM WATSON WATERMELON (90 
days)—The real red meated Tom Watson. Its tough, medium thick, elastic rind - 
makes it the finest shipper. Our seed are selected from the largest, finest melons 
in the field and is bred to eliminate hard, white centers. Flesh deep red, juicy 
and sweet, weigh 40 to 60 pounds. 
Pkt., 5c; 0z., 20c; 2 ozs., 30c; 14 Ib., 50c; 14 Ib., 85c; 1 Ib., $1.50 5 Ibs., $7.00 
| 233—IMPROVED KLECKLEY’S SWEET OR WONDERMELON (87 days)—Those 
who think they know Watermelons will tell you that until you have eaten a slice 
| of Improved Kleckley’s or Wondermelon, you haven’t really tasted the finest flavor 
to be found in Watermelons. All of the sparkling, crisp, bright crimson meat is 
deliciously sweet right up to the thin rind. For the home garden we recommend 
it without reserve; it carries well for short distances, for the rind, though thin, is 
very tough. It is not unusual to have them weigh 50 pounds or more. 
Pkt., 5c; 0z., 20c; 2 ozs., 30c; 14 lb., 50c; 14 Ib., 85e; 1 Ib., $1.50 5 Ibs., $7.00 
226—HAWKESBURY WILT RESISTANT (85 days)—Probably the best all pur- 
pose gray watermelon introduced to date. Because of its wilt resistance and supe- 
rior qualities it should replace all other gray melons. Hawkesbury is a long 
melon, slightly tapering to either end, medium to large in size. Flesh is bright 
watermelon red with a minimum of stringiness or coarseness and of excellent 
flavor. Its tough rind makes it an ideal shipping melon and it is equally desir- 
able for home use. 
Pkt., 5c; 0z., 20c; 2 ozs., 30c; 14 lb., 55c; 1%4 Ib., 95c; 1 Ib., $1.75
