Was wondering if anyone knew about this melon. I am told it is a crane melon and seed source was originally SSE and nobody else has it. I got this melon when I told the person I would do my best to preserve it. My understanding is this melon could become extinct if not enough people preserve it.

Almost forgot.I have another rare garden goody.But this is a pepper. A friend on Idig gave me a Greek pepper which came from her Mom's neighbor. What I have been told the neighbor says he uses it for roasting it is good but seeds are impossible to get and they are from Greece. Also the Greek gentleman is very secretive about his garden. My guess is it is a very little known Greek heirloom or it is a family heirloom this fellow has been growing for years.So we have a Greek pepper that is an heirloom and no history behind it.
I am thinking maybe this would be a good pepper to pair with my Thessaloníki tomatoes as a salad maybe a little onion and feta cheese with a good Greek dressing. We shall see next year.
