Petit Gris de Rennes

Cucumis melo

You will never find this Melon at a continental breakfast as it was never meant to travel. The only trip this melon should ever have to take is from the garden directly to your mouth. If treated right this exquisite melon will produce 3 to 4 exceptional tasting fruit in about 85 days. This ‘little grey’ melon can be the silver lining in your gardens taste profile.
