Add Your Opinion About This Plant
Watermelons barely grow well here in zone 7, so I can't see growing them much farther north or west than Baltimore, MD in the US. They hate cold soil and cold air. The plant also takes quite some time to mature. Planting in the first week in May here, fruits don't appear until late July typically, leaving a short two-month growing season, August and September, and occasionally a week or two into October.
