A specially developed variety to be grown directly in the open field, unlike most other watermelon varieties that require a greenhouse, a glassed-in balcony or greenhouse, for example. Tigrimini can therefore cope in a sheltered location but outdoors even in a Nordic climate, fantastic, isn’t it?
The variety has slightly smaller melons but with explosive sweetness and taste. Fantastic to eat directly as it is or to use in a summer salads that need to be spiced up. Our garden expert Johanna Damm usually makes a starter of Tigrimini by dicing it into small cubes, crumbling Chevré cheese and then drizzling some creamy balsamic over it. Last of all, she adds a little salt and pepper. Simple, decorative and incredibly tasty!
