Sugar Baby is a compact, early maturing watermelon introduced in 1955 and long valued by home gardeners and market growers. It produces round, dark green fruit approximately 20 cm across and weighing 3–5 kg. The bright red flesh is crisp, juicy and very sweet, protected by a thin but tough rind. This reliable variety is well suited to smaller gardens and cooler climates and has good drought tolerance once established. Fruit mature in approximately 68–86 days.
Approximately 20–30 seeds per gram
Approximately 15 seeds per packet
When to Plant (Australia)
Tropics: March to September
Subtropics: August to February
Mild climates: October to January

Planting / Sowing
Direct sow seed 15–20 mm deep into warm, well-drained soil in a sunny position, or start in pots and transplant carefully once the weather has warmed. Space plants 80–100 cm apart, allowing 1.5–2 m between rows or ample room for vines to spread. Keep soil evenly moist during establishment, flowering and fruit development, reducing watering as fruit approach maturity. Harvest when the tendril nearest the fruit dries, the underside turns creamy yellow and the fruit sounds hollow when tapped.
Due to quarantine restrictions, TAS has an 800g limit per each seed variety and WA has a 10,000 seeds limit per variety.

Flower seeds: As fellow gardening enthusiasts we share the love for planting and nurturing our own flowers in addition to our veggie gardens. Our carefully selected range of flower seeds, available for convenient online purchase, holds a special place in our hearts. Like the endangered vegetables we've championed, these flower varieties face the risk of vanishing forever. Some of these older strains are incredibly rare, and it's a source of immense pride for us to offer and deliver these precious flower seeds Australia-wide.
