Melon 'Petit Gris de Rennes' is delectible and sweet. The deep orange flesh is firm, but bursting with juice! Keep an eye on the beautiful sea green fruits and catch them just before they split for the peak of ripeness. The 2-pound fruits are the perfect size for a small family. Another wonderful French heirloom.
