Notes

'JuiceBox' watermelon (Citrullus lanatus 'JuiceBox') is a vegetable for food gardens and containers. It is typically grown as an annual. It is tender to cold, and the first hard frost will kill it. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, loamy soil. The vines grow low along the ground and mature in 70 days. Bees visit the flowers.

Pairs well with Tasty Jade cucumber, Blush tomato, and Pesto Perpetuo basil.
