Janet,
I'm hoping I have luck.  About 25 years ago when I was growing up in South Jersey, my grandmother always went to farm markets where she could specifically get Jenny Linds.  I never knew most canteloupes had orange flesh until we couldn't find anyone who grew these anymore.  (Jenny Linds are kind of greenish inside.)  They are a lot sweeter, too, and it took me years to realize no matter how ripe, the orange ones were never going to taste like that. I am PSYCHED for these melons, and hope I am not disappointed!
Erica
