Paradiso

Italy

Paradiso is an Italian variety in the broad "Adriatic" style — green skin, red flesh — grown by collectors for refreshing, berry-tinged sweetness. It appears consistently on collector top-variety lists, though I was not able to find further specific documented history beyond that. Note there are reportedly a couple of different strains in circulation under this name, sometimes labeled "Baud" or "Siro" to help distinguish them.
