OTHER: The Tigger or Tiger Melon is an heirloom muskmelon. They are very ornamental with lovely tiger striped skin in shades of orange, red, & yellow. The fruit is very fragrant, so much so they can be sat around like little air fresheners that will fill an area with their sweet scent. The fruit is roughly softball size & weigh up to 1 pound each. Plants produce a high yield with up to 20 melons per vine. They are able to tolerate some dryness, & hot & dry conditions actually help the fruit grow to be much sweeter & juicier. I’ve read several reviews that say the fruit is bland, but they will definitely not be if exposed to hot & dry conditions. The creamy white flesh is sweet & juicy with a delicious flavor similar to an Asian pear & a cantaloupe.
