Notes
'Janosik Watermelon' (Citrullus lanatus 'Janosik Watermelon') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and borders. 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. Vines spread about 59 to 122 inches, so give them room. Yellow summer flowers draw butterflies and bees.
Pairs well with Sweet Million tomato, Red Rubin basil, and Mojito mint.
