To say I'm a little bit proud of my watermelon is pretty accurate.
I've never been able to get watermelon to grow before, bigger than about two or three inches around. Hurrah! Yummy! and so Pretty! Considering the price of watermelon in the store we probably got our money's worth for the cost of the seed. Although we have lots of pretty leaves and vines stretching everywhere there are only about three or four watermelon. The joy has been in the success rather than the eating....strange how that works.
