Watermelon

Last summer we enjoyed eating watermelon and spitting the seeds on our back porch. At the beginning of this summer, we noticed some watermelon plants growing in our grass. We decided to let them grow and see if we could get any watermelons from them. The watermelon plant has now completely covered the grass in front of our porch and is continuing to grow.

I couldn't get the entire watermelon plant in the picture.

We are now starting to see some watermelons growing. We have two that are thriving and several tiny watermelons that we hope to see get bigger. Here are our two biggest watermelons.
