The Canary melon is a large, bright-yellow elongated melon with a pale green to white inner flesh. It has a distinctively sweet flavor.The flesh looks like that of a pear. When ripe, the rind has a slightly waxy feel. The name comes from its bright yellow color, which resembles that of the canary. The taste is likened to a sweeter cantaloupe. The fruit is native to Persia. This is a winter melon, because it matures later in the summer. This gives it a longer shelf life, and it can stay good longer than other types of melons.
