Western Cantaloupe Varieties
The Western type melon is the typical, round, lightly netted cantaloupe used for production in the Western U.S. and used for long-haul shipping. These types typically have a very tight seed cavity and concentrated fruit sets. Although these varieties are mainly grown in the Western U.S., they do grow well in the Northern and Eastern U.S. too.
