DIXIE QUEEN WATERMELON 


Ne 
Klondike Striped Blue Ribbon Watermelon 
We feel this to be the best small melon yet introduced considering both eating and 
shipping qualities. The flesh is a deep red, sweet, stringless, and melting. The rind is 
light green, conspicuously striped with a darker green. Rind is thin, hard, and tough, 
making it very desirable for shipping. The firm flesh will keep for many days. It is 
not a large melon, the average weight being about 25 pounds. All indications are that 
this variety is rapidly becoming one of the most popular, and another outstanding 
feature this strain has, it is resistant to wilt. Feel confident that a trial will prove to 
your satisfaction, the merits of this melon.
