Dark greenish-black skin and very sweet, crisp, salmon-pink flesh. The fruit has a pinkish-red, sweet flesh that is quite a treat. This Russian heirloom is early, and vines are quite vigorous, producing much fruit until frost. Comparable to Blacktail Mountain but with larger fruit. This watermelon is perfect for small families. Typically grows 10–15 lbs and 10–12" in diameter. An early and prolific producer with sturdy vines - producing melons well into fall and cooler weather. Needs a moderate amount of space - much less than other larger-sized varieties—one of the best-tasting smaller watermelons. Originally from a woman named Katanya who lives in northern Illinois. Watermelon aficionados know that Russian watermelons are something special.
