Enjoy a colorful twist on a summer classic with Tendersweet Orange Watermelon Seeds from Survival Garden Seeds. This heirloom variety produces large, 30–35 lb melons with rich orange flesh and outstanding sweetness. Known for its thick, durable rind, Tendersweet stores and travels exceptionally well, making it a top pick for gardeners, market growers, and anyone who loves unique, flavorful melons.

Sweet, Tender, and Full of Color:
True to its name, Tendersweet offers melt-in-your-mouth texture and naturally high sugar content. The deep orange flesh is both juicy and refreshing, perfect for eating chilled or fresh from the garden. Its distinctive flavor and vibrant color make it an eye-catching centerpiece at summer picnics and family gatherings.

Built to Last with a Thick, Protective Rind:
The sturdy striped rind protects the fruit during transport and helps extend storage life—ideal for small farms, markets, or home growers who harvest in bulk. This variety’s rind also makes excellent pickles, offering a creative and refreshing way to use every part of the melon.

Why Gardeners Love Tendersweet Orange Watermelon:

  • Heirloom variety with brilliant orange flesh and tender sweetness
  • Produces large 30–35 lb fruits—perfect for sharing or market sales
  • Thick, striped rind protects fruit for storage and transport
  • Stores well and holds flavor long after harvest
  • Excellent for pickling, chilling, or enjoying fresh
  • Non-GMO, open-pollinated seed with dependable germination

How to Grow:
Start watermelon seeds indoors 2–4 weeks before the last frost, or sow directly outdoors once the soil warms to 70°F or above. Choose a sunny location with fertile, well-drained soil. Space plants 3–4 feet apart in rows 6–8 feet apart. Water consistently during early growth, then reduce watering as fruit ripens to concentrate sweetness. Harvest about 90–100 days after planting, when the underside of the melon turns creamy yellow and the nearest tendril dries.

Harvest & Enjoy:
Chill your Tendersweet Orange watermelon before slicing for maximum sweetness. The thick rind helps preserve freshness, making it a great choice for picnics, farm stands, and summer desserts. For a creative twist, pickle the rind for a crisp, tangy treat that captures the taste of summer.

The Island Of Death
Format: Hardcover
On August 7th, 1942, American Marines stormed ashore on Guadalcanal. What lay before them was a six-month odyssey of fighting against the best of what the Japanese had to offer. In this fine book, author Joseph Wheelan describes the battle that turned the tide in the Pacific War. The Japanese had started construction of an airfield on Guadalcanal. If completed, Japanese aircraft would be able to harass American convoys and threaten Australia. The Americans seized the airfield and eventually, planes from the Cactus Air Force began attacking the Japanese. Throughout the book, the reader learns about all phases of the Guadalcanal campaign, including the battles of Alligator Creek and Bloody Ridge. On the sea, the Americans and Japanese slugged it out at Savo Island, as well as the great naval battles of November, 1942. Names such as Chesty Puller, John Baslone, "Archie" Vandegrift, Joe Foss, and "Bull" Halsey became household names in the United States. Each side lost many men, ships, and planes, but the tenacity and, finally, the industrial might and the ability to rapidly replace losses, led the Americans to victory. Never again would the Japanese regain the offensive in the Pacific War. "Midnight in the Pacific" is a very good book, and the author has done a good job of describing all of the main points of the battle. Each chapter is broken down into a single month's worth of action, and the narrative is well-written. Highly recommended.

Good Narrative History
Format: Hardcover
The account of the Guadalcanal campaign was well-written. It has several good maps but it falls short with the two carrier battles associated with the action. There should have detailed maps for the Battle of the Eastern Solomons and the Battle of the Santa Cruz Islands. Aside from this shortcoming, the book provides an excellent, readable history of a crucial confrontation between the US and Japan.

A Very Thorough Accounting of One of the Most Savage Battles of World War 2
Format: Kindle
My father served in the United States Marine Corps during World War 2 and fought in the first offensive battle by the US during the war, the battle for the island of Guadalcanal. He was seriously wounded there and evacuated back to the states where he spent a year in a naval hospital. As a result, I have read many of the books about this battle. This book was particularly interesting because the author described the battle from the perspective of both the allied forces and the Japanese, drawing from historical records and other books. It was a very thorough accounting and demonstrated what a monstrous battle this was. I only wish my father were still alive so that I could have discussed it with him. His experience at Guadalcanal was not something he would often talk about, but considering savagery of what he saw and endured, I understand. If you are interested in Guadalcanal, I recommend this book.

Excellent book on the Campaign!
Format: Hardcover
I highly recommend this book! I have read many books on the Guadalcanal Campaign and I rate this one at the top. It has just the right blend of stragity and personal accounts to keep the story interesting. It is actually a real page-turner, which is rare for a non-fiction work. Wheelan writes in a style that reminds me of the books I read in my teens by Cornelius Ryan and John Toland, which captured my interest in WWII and history. The book jumps right into the invasion, no multiple chapters concerning the planning and build up, but this info is covered later. All phases of this campaign are covered; ground, air and sea. The maps are okay. There are never enough. The author skims over much of the U. S. Army battles after the Marines are relieved, but that seems to be a trend in all of the books on Guadalcanal that I have read. Overall, this is an excellent book for those who want to learn about the campaign and those who need a re-fresher after reading Starvation Island and Guadalcanal by Frank in years past.

Most complete coverage of Guadalcanal I have read.
Format: Kindle
I have read dozens of WWII books and many touched on the Guadalcanal Battle. I thoroughly enjoyed The Big E and its involvement in the battle. Thas book covered the entire conflict from start to finish. Frankly, I hated to see the book end. The courage and tenacity of all those involved was amazing. To understand the miserable conditions in the area where these men fought was inspiring. To see this battle through the eyes of the American forces and Japanese forces was an added bonus. Thank you for a great read!!!
