It’s name doesn’t lie. Tendersweet Orange Watermelons produce lovely oblong fruit with stunningly beautiful and incredibly delicious orange flesh. But, Tendersweet Orange is more than a novelty; in our opinion we feel it can hold its own in a taste test with any more conventional watermelon. You may think that the yellow/orange flesh is a hybrid novelty, but this color has actually been around longer than the pink and red watermelon flesh that we have come to know. We highly recommend this one!
