Variety description

10 August 2026

Mentions of a watermelon named "Dark Star F1" characterize it as a seedless hybrid visually belonging to the Sugar Baby variety type, which possesses dark green fruit coloration.

Reliable data on the breeding history, maturity dates, or morphological traits of this watermelon are absent in agrotechnical sources. There is information that the name "Dark Star" is standard for varieties of zucchini and dragon fruit, in connection with which the use of this name for a watermelon is of a contradictory nature.
