Notes

'Black Jewel or Kurokodama Watermelon' (Citrullus lanatus 'Black Jewel or Kurokodama Watermelon') is a vegetable grown for the food garden and for containers. It is typically grown as an annual. Frost will kill it, so set it out only after the last frost in spring. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, loamy soil. The vines spread about 59 to 122 inches, so give them room. Yellow summer flowers bring butterflies and bees to your garden.

Pairs well with Black Beauty Tomato tomato, Salad Bush cucumber, and Moss Curled parsley.
