Moon and Stars Watermelon

Description

Citrullus lanatus

We can promise you the moon and the stars with this HEIRLOOM  melon from the  1920’s.   It is  deliciously sweet and can grow up to 20 lbs with spots that look like little moons and stars.  How could you not like it?

They like the hot weather, so if you live up north start seeds indoors to give them time to grow. Watermelon is 90% water and if you give it water, sunshine (8 hrs a day) and lots of room it is easy to grow.  Just  remember it doesn’t like the cold weather.  You can fertilize the plants, but after you see the first flowers, don’t feed your plants.  In about 100 days you should see the moon and the stars in your garden!
