Variety description

10 August 2026

Kaori F1 is an early-maturing watermelon hybrid with reduced seed content. The plant has vigorous development, high adaptability to various conditions, and a long harvest period.

The fruits have a round shape and a weight of 3 to 5 kg. The rind color is characterized by dark green stripes on a light green background. The flesh is firm, deep red in color, and distinguished by high sugar content and a pronounced flavor. Due to the firm rind and flesh structure, the fruits have good keeping quality.

The hybrid has intermediate resistance to Fusarium wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. niveum (races 0, 1). It is used as an independent commercial crop or as a pollinator for mid-early planting dates.
