Variety description

10 August 2026

The Bouquet program was launched in the early 1990s to create a standardized product with predictable characteristics for the European market. The line includes different types of varieties, including standard striped, mini-watermelons, and fruits with yellow flesh and dark rind.

Key criteria for products under this brand are the absence of seeds, which is achieved by using triploid hybrids, and a rind thickness limited to 20 mm. Breeding is aimed at maintaining high sugar content and creating fruits with a firm texture suitable for sale in sliced form.
