Lead the pack with early
maturity, large fruit size and
high yields.

Cruiser, an early maturing western shipper, is
characterized by uniform size, refined appearance, excellent flesh texture and deep orange color. This melon is made for early season plantings and is round-oval in shape, fully netted with a small, tight cavity.

Top performance has made Cruiser the early season standard in both Texas and Mexico.

Exceptional uniformity of fruit size and shape combined with a concentrated set has made Cruiser a favorite with growers.

Attractive exterior color has been a strong selling point for both buyers and consumers. The small stem scar, tight seed cavity and uniform netting provide excellent shipping ability.

Cruiser has performed exceptionally well under cool, springtime conditions with good vine cover to protect fruit.

In addition, this variety has less tendency than other early melons to oversize under moderate to warm growing conditions. The outstanding quality and large fruit size can help guarantee profitable yields.
