The Jenny Lind melon (Cucumis melo) is an heirloom cantaloupe first introduced in the 1840s. Unlike most other types of cantaloupe, its flesh is light green, rather than orange. A typical fruit weights between one and two pounds, and has a distinct knob, often known as a turban, on one end.[1]

Like other heirloom plants, Jenny Lind melons are generally not grown commercially. However, their seeds are available from a variety of sources, and many home gardeners choose to grow their own. The plant is commonly believed to have been named for the singer Jenny Lind.[1]
