Specialty cantaloupe<br />
Divergent<br />
Divergent defies classification – part Cantaloupe, part Galia, all flavor! This variety is sweet,<br />
juicy and ripens earliest in its class. Selected as a fresh market variety, Divergent has orange<br />
flesh and a closed cavity. Medium-sized round fruits set close to the crown for a concentrated<br />
harvest. Plants are vigorous and mature quickly, making this a variety that can be harvested<br />
in 2 to 3 passes. Succession plantings are recommended for a continuous supply throughout<br />
the season. This specialty cantaloupe is notable for its uniformity, both in maturity and fruit<br />
appearance. The exterior netting is low and fruits look similar to a Galia from the outside.<br />
Melons are ready to harvest when they have turned halfway from green to tan. Divergent is an<br />
adaptable, high yielding variety that performs well in many regions, including Northern areas<br />
with shorter seasons.<br />
