Overview
About honeydew
Honeydew runs alongside cantaloupe on most melon programs and ships in the same lanes. Green flesh is the volume item; orange flesh honeydew has a smaller, more seasonal following and is worth asking about when it is running.

Questions
Honeydew: common questions
What is the difference between green and orange flesh honeydew?
Green flesh is the standard honeydew and carries the volume. Orange flesh honeydew is sweeter and runs on shorter windows, so availability is worth confirming with the sales desk.
What packs does honeydew ship in?
5, 6 and 8 count cartons for retail programs, and bins for volume. Honeydew also combines well on mixed melon pallets.
