Notes
'Golden Jenny Melon' (Cucumis melo 'Golden Jenny Melon') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and borders. It is typically grown as an annual. It is not cold-hardy and will not survive freezing temperatures. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, loamy or clay soil. The vines bloom from early to late summer, and the fragrant flowers attract butterflies and bees. Give the long vines room or a sturdy support to climb.
Pairs well with Borage, Nasturtium, African marigold, and Oregano.
