Hi, I was conducting some research on a melon I had not tried or even seen in our shops before and come across your web site.

The Melon in question is a Piel de Sapo. When I saw it in the shop I thought it would probably be like a watermelon inside, red and full of black seeds.

I cut it open this morning and was supprised to find it looked like a Honeydew but when I tasted it the flavour and crispness was that of a watermelon - my senses were in overdrive trying to figure out what it was so to aid my senses I relied on good old Google - the fountain of all knowledge in my house! It is there I found your website and thought I would join in.

It looks as if you have had this melon in your part of the world for a while but as mentioned above this is the first time I have seen it in the UK & I love it.

Unfortunatley my garden is only 3 meters square and therefore do not have the space to grow anything other than contained flowers!

Kind Regards
Sarah
