This giant African heirloom (which we got from our friends at Southern Exposure Seed Exchange) has been traced back to an unnamed African American farmer who grew it on a South Carolina plantation in the mid-1800's. Also known as Stoney Mountain Watermelon, the fruits have pink, sweet, coarse flesh with a tender rind, light green (some say grayish) skin and white seeds that mature in 90 days. It is listed under Slow Food Ark of Taste. A truly delicious watermelon.
