The flesh is white and has a flavor and texture much like a mango. It has a delightful aroma, a couple of vine peaches in a bowl will perfume the room with peaches and mangoes scent. The melons are the same size and color as tree peaches. Vine Peaches make excellent preserves, pies, butter, and pickles. They are grown just like the cantaloupes and muskmelons. Drought Tolerant. Excellent choice for home gardens. Also known as Mango Melon. Introduced in the United States in the 1880s. An heirloom variety from China. United States Department of Agriculture, NSL 5768.

Soil Requirements:

Requires fertile slightly acid soil in a well drained location in the garden. Apply much and grass clippings, or straw around base of plant.

Water Requirements:

Water well during dry and hot spells. Make sure plants get 1" water per week.

Fertilizer Requirements:

Use RootBlast, Vegetable Alive, and Slow Release Fertilizer when transplanting outdoors. Periodically apply Miracle Gro.

Harvest Tips:

Protect ripening melons from damp ground by placing them on boards. Cut melons carefully from plants to prevent damaging the vines.
