Louisiana
Sweet Watermelon (aka. Louisiana Queen Watermelon)
Origin: United States
Item #: WATERMELON020
The Louisiana Sweet Watermelon
is a 1971 introduction from the North Louisiana Experimental Station and
arose by crossing the varieties Summit and Fairfax. Originally, this watermelon
variety was released under the name of Louisiana Queen, but in subsequent
years has undergone a name change. Louisiana Sweet or Louisiana Queen is
similar in appearance to the watermelon variety Dixie Queen and was developed
completely with the average watermelon consumer in mind.
Louisiana Sweet produces
an abundance of rounded, oblong watermelons with a medium green colored
rind overcast by dark green stripes. Each watermelon weighs approximately
25 pounds. Its tough, abuse resistant rind, when sliced open reveals a
wonderful crisp, finely textured flesh that possesses a brilliant red color
and a truly outstanding flavor. Its seeds are of a medium size and are
black stippled in color.
Features a high tolerance
to Fusarium Wilt and Anthracnose.
Matures in 90 days.
