Do Watermelon trees die after the first harvest and you have to plant new ones again or do they last for more?
I bought some watermelon and rockmelon seeds from bunnings and I just needed to know.
Trees, vines it doesn’t matter, whatever they grow on.

Watermelon do not grow on trees. They grow on vines. And yes, you do need to replant them each year.

Melons and squashes live only one season.
Save seeds from the fruits to plant next year’s crop.

Watermelons are annuals they die after the first season. You will have to plant new ones next season.
They grow on vines that look like this

Rockmelons are annuals as well and need to be replanted each season..
