Mmm, watermelon....

There is currently a watermelon plant growing in the garden and it makes me wish I owned a digital camera so bad. The plant grew out of some compost in a rather random way and had originally been judged a cucumber vine. There is only one watermelon on it so far and I doubt that there will be more, this being September in Ottawa and watermelons being best suited for life in South Central Africa where it is considerably hotter.

The one fruit I suspect the plant will ever bear, is currently about 20cm in circumference and furry like a tennis ball. I am tempted to name it Wendy in an attempt to encourage to grow to its full potential so her flesh may be enjoyed by one and all but am trying to hold myself in check.
