My 1st thought was same as Jacque.... Baby melon, ah!

It will grow, and fast. Mind you the local melon are all on sale here on the roadside, so we are well into melon season.

Chris, We are about 2 weeks until prime melon season here, and I didn't have good luck on my first plants, so I'd be happy with just about anything at this point.

Yep, I agree that is rather small - we have huge things over here - they even sell cool juicy slices on the city streets for weary passers by. A great idea for a quick pick-me-up when the going gets hot!

I thought it was a gooseberry as well mind you a nice one.

This is a mini var. of watermelon, called "Ice Box" they are supposed to be about 6-8 inches and weigh about 3 lbs. It should take about 2 weeks to get that size of course. I just don't have the space for one of those gigantic 40 lb melons like they sell in the stores.
