"Growing great"

— Steven L. (5/5)

Delicious Sierra Gold

"Sierra Gold is the most delicious sweet cantaloupe I've eaten. It is a vigorous growing plant and will produce many beautiful cantaloupe. I've been happy growing this variety for well over 20 years, and the 8 to 10 plants I have each year always gives us in the neighborhood of 60 to 70 melons over the course of several months. Plenty to share a few with the neighbors"
