Raised on vigorous rootstocks, these plants offer impressive strength and resilience, setting generous crops under cover or in a warm, sunny position outdoors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grafting process delivers real benefits for food-focused growers. Increased resistance to soil-borne pests and diseases makes them particularly useful for greenhouse borders where crop rotation is limited, while their added vigour encourages heavier yields and reliable performance throughout the season. With the warmth of early summer, you can look forward to sweet, succulent orange flesh that slices beautifully into salads and desserts, delivering outstanding home-grown flavour from garden to plate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGrafted vegetable plants offer us gardeners’ plants which have greater vigour and much more resistance to soil borne pests and diseases, such as nematodes – particularly useful if you grow in the greenhouse border soil each year, where crop rotation is somewhat limited! The grafting process brings together the best attributes of two different plants – a species rootstock and a hybrid variety.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe hybrid variety is grafted to the species rootstock to produce plants which are strong and vigorous, which in turn, produce more fruits and heavier yields. Although traditionally greenhouse grown, we have found, over the last few years, that plants, if placed in a warm and sunny position, will also crop well outside too – even more reason to grow them. Supplied as well-established plants in 9cm pots. Please note – do not remove the plastic grafting clip. It will fall off naturally as the plant grows.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"DT Brown","offers":[{"title":"3 x 9cm Potted Plants - EARLY (APRIL)","offer_id":56361669099906,"sku":"56269","price":16.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"3 x 9cm Potted Plants - LATE (MAY)","offer_id":56361669132674,"sku":"45020","price":16.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0755\/3751\/4818\/files\/MEL-002z.jpg?v=1776273339","url":"https:\/\/www.dtbrownseeds.co.uk\/products\/melon-diva-grafted-plants","provider":"dt-brown","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
