Geography/History
Its given name refers to the melon's color, not the Canary Islands. It is not the most recognized commercial melon variety, as it has many growing deficiencies. It is susceptible to mildew, sunburn and is inherently not disease resistant. Its growing season is during the summer months preferably in dry hot climates. Though sometimes tough to grow, canary melons are known to have a long post-vine shelf-life.
