Notes

'Harvest Moon F1' watermelon (Citrullus lanatus 'Harvest Moon F1') is a vegetable for the food garden. It is typically grown as an annual. It cannot take cold, and a freeze will end its season. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, loamy soil. The vines are prostrate, so give them room to spread. Bees visit the flowers in summer.

Pairs well with Brad's Atomic Grape Tomato tomato, Radish organic, Fern Leaf dill, and Pesto Perpetuo basil.
