Question for August: How many melon types can you name? We all enjoy watermelon, honeydew and canteloupe but did you know there are eleven different kinds of summer melons? And, relating it to genealogy, how many are new hybrids and how many might our ancestors have enjoyed?
How about Crenshaw, Juane Canari, Piel de Sapo, Orange Honeydew, Honeydew, Cantaloupe, Heirloom Contaloupe, Galia, Hami, Casaba and Sharlyn. How many have you tried??
Of the names you mentioned I’ve eaten ten.
