Description: Canary Melon is named for its bright yellow rind which resembles the color of a canary when it is ripe. This oval shaped melon’s outer skin has a slightly waxy feel.

A perfect accompaniment to citrus, herbs like basil, mint and cilantro, it adds a unique flavor to fruit salads, sorbets and is perfect mixed with other melons.
