description Dudaim Melon Overview
The dudaim melon is a small, fragrant form of muskmelon, commonly identified as Cucumis melo var. dudaim. It is associated with the Middle East and is grown mainly as an ornamental or aromatic plant because of its intense perfume. The fruit has relatively bland, largely inedible flesh, so its value differs from that of melons cultivated primarily for eating.
It is of interest to gardeners and collectors of heirloom or unusual plant varieties.
