We ended up finding a total of SIX watermelons amid the lush growth of Heather's watermelon plant. Above is Heather with the first one we found. The others were all about the size of a baseball or smaller.
Unfortunately, the recent rains have caused all of the watermelons to mold and turn to mush on the bottom. Most of them also split in half. Heather was disappointed but proud still. I love her cheerful outlook!
Heather is already planning where she will plant her watermelon seeds next year. She doesn't want any suggestion from Mom, either. She's sneaky. I didn't even know she had planted seeds until the plants came up this year. Who knows where I will find them next year.
