August Ambrosia Watermelon

If you dream of homegrown watermelon and garden in short seasons, grow August Ambrosia Watermelon. Her sweet fruits ripen abundantly throughout August even in short, cool seasons. We were honestly flabbergasted in 2017 to see how well they produced despite the endless rain, impressive disease pressure and relatively cool temperatures. If we can grow watermelon, you can, too!

Fruition developed August Ambrosia in collaboration with Cornell over six seasons, but here’s the thing: for millennia, brilliant indigenous seedkeepers have co-adapted with watermelon, laying the foundation so now we all can enjoy an impressively early watermelon with sweet flesh, thin rind & small seeds, straight from the garden every day in August. And we do!
