Why Gardeners Love Crimson Sweet Watermelon:
- Heirloom watermelon with rich, sweet red flesh

- Heat-loving and drought-tolerant once established
- Reliable yields in full sun and warm summer weather
- Easy to grow for beginners with included planting instructions
How to Grow:
Start seeds indoors 2–4 weeks before the last frost date or direct-sow once soil temperatures reach 70°F. Plant in full sun and rich, well-drained soil with plenty of space for sprawling vines—about 3–4 feet apart in rows 6 feet apart. Water deeply but infrequently to encourage deep roots. Fruits are ready to harvest approximately 85 days after planting, when the underside turns creamy yellow and the nearest tendril dries.
Harvest & Enjoy:
Slice chilled Crimson Sweet watermelons for a refreshing treat, or use them in fruit salads, smoothies, and summer desserts. Their vibrant color and sweetness make them a family favorite that’s as beautiful as it is delicious.
