HYBRID DIXIE QUEEN 
Watermelon 
e EARLY — 82 DAYS 
Wilt Resistant 
A true first generation Hybrid produced by hand 
controlled pollination; the cross of two carefully inbred 
and selected parent lines. Slightly earlier than regular 
Dixie Queen. Very uniform and vigorous growing. Strong 
resistance to fusarium the common wilt of watermelons. 
It produces from mid-August until frost. 
Outstanding for its crisp, low fibre flesh, good strong 
watermelon flavor and for its excellent shipping and 
keeping quality. Very thin but extra tough rind, slightly 
darker in color compared to Dixie Queen. Fruit size 30 to 
50 pounds. Seeds dark color. 
It Is Only Since World War II... 
that hybrid vegetables have been grown by the 
home gardener and more recently by the market 
grower and shipper, who is rapidly accepting Hy- 
brids for their vigor, disease resistance, insect 
resistance, earliness, uniformity, shipping quality 
and greater yield.
