The watermelons are large, averaging about 40 pounds in weight and have a very tough rind that is nearly an inch thick. The flesh is a lovely bright red in color dotted with large black "stipple" marked seeds and has a very fine texture and a very palatable sweet flavor that is superior to most other varieties of watermelons.
Sugar Baby Watermelon
The standard of small watermelons. Round fruits, 6-8" in diameter, averaging 8-10 lb. Ripe melons are almost black. Good flavor. Tough rinds resist cracking. The standard of "icebox" melons for many years.
Goji Berry
Dating back about 5,000 years, the goji berry can grow to reach a height of about 6 feet, with berries ranging in color from pale yellow to deep red and tasting like a cross between a cranberry & a raisin. It is said that a Chinese man named Li Qing Yuen consumed wolfberries daily & lived to the age of 252!
Grape
Although small, tart, and seedy, the ripe grapes are edible and quite flavorful. Like those of cultivated grapes, the young leaves are also edible and can be used as a wrap for baked food. Grapes eaten fresh or dried by Native Americans.

Alexandria Strawberry

Alpine Strawberry
The fruit is the ultimate reward. It's aroma is distintive and nearly impossible to put into words. The taste is also difficult to describe. Many expect the fruit to taste tart and sweet at the same time like some garden strawberries are supposed to taste.
