Ooooo, the sweet smell of ripe cantaloupe! This is my very first melon, a Minnesota Midget, and she smells heavenly. She is about the size of a tennis ball...and there are five more behind her, a few are softball sized. Growing, and now picking melons has been has the pride and highlight of my garden this year! 🧡#thecoeurdalenecoop #sweetmelon #minnesotamidgetmelon #cantaloupelove #stickysweet ... See MoreSee Less
