What is your experience when you see melon flowers in summer?

This year, I grow several kinds of melons in my yard, including cucumbers, loofahs, bitter melons, and large pumpkins. Watching them grow from seedlings to growing, blooming, and producing melons... is very joyful and interesting.

However, what is more interesting than eating melons is observing their posture. Just talking about them blooming is enough for me today.

The flowers that bloom on these types of melons are all yellow, although they are different in size and shape.

Is this my major discovery? At least, I really didn't notice this pattern before. Do all melons have yellow flowers?

Ask Du Niang, Du Niang said that the flowers of winter melon, watermelon and cantaloupe are also yellow. I can't think of any other melons at the moment, so I'll make an arbitrary decision and use the enumeration rule to assume that all melons have yellow flowers.

01 Cucumber flower

The cucumber flower is the first to bloom in the small courtyard. The golden flower has five petals, like a golden five-star, shining in the sun. It's very bright inside.

What puzzles me is that the beautifully blooming cucumber flowers will not produce melons. Others are male and are only responsible for pollination. ?Mr. said mysteriously. Look at the cucumber flowers that are about to bear melons. They are small, thin, and sickly. Behind the flowers is a new-born cucumber that is as big as a ding and looks like a small insect. It is covered with pimples like sand grains. It's painfully ugly.

02 The flowers of bitter melon

The flowers of bitter melon are light yellow and look like gold with silver in them. However, the stamens are golden yellow and the petals are five and thin. It looks a little haggard, the entire flower is about the size of a button, and is hidden under the leaves.

This time I don’t have to wonder, bitter melon is also a big, beautiful flower without melons! Probably the same as cucumbers.

03 Luffa flowers

Luffa flowers are still yellow and open into a big round face with five petals. They look much stronger than cucumbers and bitter flowers.

After Xiaoman, my loofah has not bloomed yet, but I am not worried that it will miss the flowering season. The loofah flowers bloom late, but last for a long time. They can bloom until late autumn, allowing people to eat loofahs in autumn. You see, now is the time for lush foliage, flowers, and melons.

04 Pumpkin Flowers

Pumpkin flowers bloom as big as the mouth of a bowl, no wonder the melons they produce are also big. The growth rate of pumpkins is really amazing. It feels like the branches are always climbing up in a hurry. In a few days, the whole shelf is full.

The strange thing is that the pumpkin vines in the small courtyard have a lot of big yellow flowers in bloom, but they produce very few pumpkins.

Could it be that these days, even the pumpkin flowers have an imbalance between men and women? Are all the public flowers blooming?

Friend, tell me, how many kinds of melons do I grow at home? Why do they all have yellow flowers? Which flower doesn’t bear melons? Which flower does your friend like? Should I praise the melon or its flowers?
