Sweet Gem is an attractive round seedless variety with a rich glossy dark green rind. A favorite from our trials, the 13-16 lb. fruit have crisp firm red flesh with small pips, and sweet mouth-watering flavor. Good fruit set and early 79 day maturity make Sweet Gem an ideal choice for roadside and local markets.
