This is the 1904 and 1908 Gladewood garden! A little over a month ago we noticed a vine growing in the alley back by our gas meter and trash can. After inspection we discovered it is a watermelon vine!!! Not surprising considering this is where I dump liquid things sometimes such as watermelon juice and grease! It had 2 small watermelons on it. We instructed the kids not to mess with it and we have been monitoring it ever since.
Reese came in one day with one of the watermelons and now we have 1! It is actually getting pretty big. The kids and I have been measuring it every few days. We think that next spring we are going to put a little fence up and grow and 1904/1908 garden with tomatoes, peppers, and obviously watermelons.
We'll let you know how the melon tastes!
