Sweet, Exotic Flavor and Vibrant Color:
Orangeglo watermelons are celebrated for their distinctive taste—juicy, tropical, and honey-sweet with a satisfying crunch. The deep orange flesh contrasts beautifully with the light green striped rind, creating a visually stunning fruit that’s as eye-catching as it is delicious.
Large, Productive, and Garden-Friendly:
This vigorous heirloom variety thrives in full sun and rich, well-drained soil. With proper care, each plant can produce large fruits weighing 20–30 pounds, making it a rewarding choice for gardeners who love bold, flavorful harvests.
Why Gardeners Love Orangeglo Watermelon:
- Brilliant orange flesh with tropical sweetness and crisp texture
- Heirloom variety with reliable germination and strong growth
- Produces large 20–30 lb fruits—perfect for sharing or storing
- Beautiful striped rind and vibrant interior for visual appeal
- Heat-loving, sun-loving plants suited for warm climates
- Beginner-friendly with standard watermelon care requirements
How to Grow:
Start seeds indoors 2–4 weeks before the last frost date or direct-sow outdoors when soil reaches 70°F or warmer. Choose a sunny location with loose, well-drained soil. Space plants 3–4 feet apart in rows 6–8 feet apart. Water consistently during growth, reducing frequency as fruits mature to enhance sweetness. Expect harvest about 90–100 days after planting, when the underside turns creamy yellow and the tendril near the stem dries.
Harvest & Enjoy:
Slice chilled Orangeglo watermelons for a refreshing, tropical treat unlike any other. Perfect for fruit salads, desserts, or snacking, their bright orange color and unique flavor make them a show-stopping addition to your summer table.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are heirloom seeds?
What are heirloom seeds?
Heirloom seeds are the types of seeds your grandparents grew. These varieties have been passed down from generation to generation. They’re old reliable open-pollinated varieties that aren’t typically grown commercially. Instead, they have a rich history that predates modern breeding techniques.
You can learn more about open-pollinated, heirloom, and non-GMO seeds in our Survival Garden Training blog.
How do I know my seeds are fresh?
How do I know my seeds are fresh?
Every seed packet includes a "packed for" date, and we germination test each seed lot before packaging to ensure you receive viable, high-quality seeds that are ready to grow.
Are your seeds treated?
Are your seeds treated?
No, we do not pre-treat our farmer seeds. All of our garden seeds for sale are untreated, open-pollinated, non-GMO, and heirloom varieties. They are kept in temperature-controlled cooler storage until they are packed and shipped to keep them pest and disease-free.
In what zones can I grow your seeds?
In what zones can I grow your seeds?
The seeds in our collections are specifically chosen from varieties that can be successfully grown from Zone 3 to Zone 10 USDA Hardiness Zones. However, individual varieties have specific needs to thrive in different environments. Each seed pack has optimal temperatures for germination and instructions on seed starting. Consult local frost dates to plan your garden and get the most out of your seeds.
What is the shelf life of these gardening seeds?
What is the shelf life of these gardening seeds?
Most seeds remain viable for 3 to 5 years or longer when stored properly. Check your seed packet for specific varieties. For best results, keep your seeds in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Store them in an airtight container in a consistent temperature environment—a refrigerator or cool basement works well. Proper storage helps maintain germination rates and extends seed life well beyond the packed date.

Where are Survival Garden Seeds sourced?
The majority of our seeds are sourced in the United States, with a few exceptions when the seed is difficult to source domestically. Whenever we do have to source outside of the US, we ensure our seeds are safe to grow, non-GMO varieties that meet our standards for germination and reliability.
