Watermelon!

Lots of little watermelons formed on the vines, but only a couple made it to harvest. Some eaten by critters, some by bugs, some just seemed to implode. This summer was just so wet. After three years of drought! I think they needed a little more room to themselves, too. Next year.

Meanwhile, the two I have eaten were delicious. Lots of seeds, but so sweet and tasty. They are definitely "personal" melons, even smaller than those minis at the grocery store. The seed packet said to harvest at about 6 inches in diameter, and that is about what you see here. Definitely will plant them again next year. Yummy, yummy.

Oh yeah, I didn't share this one, either.
