Sweet Dakota Rose is the sweetest watermelon I've been able to grow well here, followed by Dark Star. Both are supposed to be in the 10-15 lb. range but I had one SDR reach 55 lbs. this year. Crimson Sweet was my previous favorite, but they are generally larger than the other two. I always share cut melons with neighbors and many have said the the SDR is the best tasting watermelon they've ever had or that they've had in years.
