Cucumis melo. 80 days. Open-pollinated.
Rich Sweetness 132 is an heirloom melon variety from the former Soviet Union.
Compact plants produce an impressively high yield of small, round melons, each about the size of a baseball and weighing less than a quarter pound, with a striking orange-red rind striped with creamy yellow.
Flesh is crisp and juicy, offering a sweet, honey-like flavor with a hint of floral notes, making them a perfect choice for snacking or for adding to salads and desserts.
