Casaba Golden Beauty Melon (Cucumis melo)
Casaba Golden Beauty Melon (Cucumis melo): A melon with thick white juicy flesh, a light sweetness, and a long shelf life that originated in Turkey.

The average weight of an oval fruit is 7-8 pounds, and the skin is golden yellow and wrinkled. The white flesh has a delicious spicy aroma.
