About (From this Label)
The Moon and Stars Watermelon is a unique heirloom variety with a dark green rind and yellow spots. Typically weighing 10-15 pounds, it can grow up to 40 pounds. Its thick rind is great for pickling, while the vibrant flesh can be red, yellow, or orange and is sweet in flavor. This vining annual thrives in full sun and loamy soil with a neutral pH, requiring regular watering. Harvest when fully ripe for the best taste, making it a beautiful addition to any summer garden.
