This color is a representation of the color of the interior flesh of a cantaloupe, the most commonly consumed melon.
The first recorded use of melon as a color name in English was in 1892.
In 1949, “melon” was formulated as one of the Crayola colors. Wikipedia
Gerber daisies are one of my favorites…sweet and simple. Beautiful photos.
