Widely adapted cantaloupe


Acclaim is a widely adapted cantaloupe with an impressive disease package and excellent interior and exterior qualities.

This main season variety bears a medium-sized, slightly oval melon. Inside, sweet, firm orange flesh surrounds a medium-tight cavity.

Acclaim's heavy, raised netting provides the durability needed to withstand long-haul shipping.

A strong vine helps ensure consistent fruit production and internal quality under a range of conditions.
