🍉 NATIONAL WATERMELON DAY 🍉
National Watermelon Day is celebrated on August 3th. Did you know that watermelon is 92% water? No wonder it’s so refreshing! People have been digging into this tasty, juicy fruit for millennia, and it all started in Ancient Egypt. It’s said that watermelon cultivation began in the Nile Valley as early as the second millennium B.C. Watermelon seeds were even found in King Tut’s tomb!
Did you know there are more than 1,200 varieties of watermelon in the world? They range from pink to orange, large to small, round to even square! If you ever find yourself in Japan, be sure to track down its famous cubic watermelons.
Watermelons are a fruit (a berry, to be precise) because they contain seeds to produce more plants. But they are also a vegetable, because they are planted from seeds and harvested like other vegetables. Watermelons are a member of the gourd family, meaning they're related to squash, cucumbers, and pumpkins.
It's no surprise watermelons are in the same family as the pumpkin—you can carve them, too! Unleash your creativity by carving a watermelon rose, a watermelon shark, or a watermelon dino!
Challenge: Create a HA which is related to watermelons, be it colors, history, use or other creative entries!
Like always, all wearables are allowed and you don´t have to own them Please use surroundings. Please don´t post a HA which already was created for another challenge in Subeta.
Contest ends Tuesday 7th of August, midnight Subeta time.
