Watermellon ~ Blacktail Mountain

A hardy heirloom for northern climates, Blacktail Mountain is prized for its ability to ripen reliably in short, cool growing seasons. Compact vines produce small to medium “icebox” melons with dark green rinds and crisp, deep red flesh. The flavor is exceptionally sweet and refreshing, with a classic summer richness. Known for setting fruit even in cooler temperatures, this variety performs well in Canadian gardens when given warmth and good sun exposure. A dependable choice for northern growers seeking full-flavored watermelons without a long season requirement. 70-80 days
