Unwins Melon Pepito F1 Seeds

Bring a taste of summer to your garden with Unwins Melon Pepito F1 Seeds. This outstanding variety produces sweet cantaloupe-style melons with a rich aroma and a flavour that’s often described as honey-like. The fruits are oval and rugby-ball shaped, with deep orange, succulent flesh that’s perfect served chilled, sliced into fruit salads, or enjoyed straight from the vine.

Pepito F1 is a strong performer, offering good disease resistance and a useful ability to resist over-ripening, helping you enjoy a better harvest with less waste. Best grown in a warm, sunny spot, it’s ideal for greenhouses, polytunnels, or sheltered patios, and can also be grown successfully in pots and containers with support.
