Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Description of the Golden Champlain Cantaloupe
We have in times past raised about all the standard varieties of melons, but have never found one which could equal the Champlain, year after year, in yield. The vines are naturally very vigorous, and are able to ripen a full setting of fruit of prime quality. Those set close to the center ripen first, then those farther out on the vines, giving a longer picking season than most kinds. We have had many experts in melon growing look over our fields of Champlain, and they have each expressed their astonishment at such a heavy crop.
