Product Description

The Charleston Gray watermelon is a striking heirloom variety known for its large, elongated shape and smooth, pale green rind. Its flesh is a vibrant, deep red, offering a sweet and juicy flavor that is perfect for summer. Charleston Gray can reach up to 30 pounds, with a rind that is thick enough to withstand transport yet thin enough to provide a high yield of succulent flesh. The plant is vigorous, producing spreading vines with large, dark green leaves that offer ample cover to the developing melons, making it a favorite among home gardeners.
