Watermelon crawl...for real.

Remember this little guy?

 He was just an itty bitty little thing when we planted him.

When we came back from vacation, he had grown much.

 We were impressed.

Now, just 2 weeks later, he's grown and crawled and taken over the east end of the garden bed!

I even trimmed him up a bit so he couldn't choke out the sunflowers or lettuce.

Not only is he sprawling across the bed, he's busy making little watermelons. This one is about the size of a ping pong ball. 

If you live within the general vicinity, expect to find a watermelon with a bow on it on your front door step in a few weeks. There are a lot of watermelons on this vine.
