Rock Melon

I bought a Rockmelon plant from Lidls in the spring. It developed well and produced new growth so I moved it out to the garden. It is now a pathetic sight having dropped nearly all it's leaf and looks very pale. I have sprayed it for bugs and brought it back indoors. Does anyone know what could be wrong and is the prognosis bad?

 

I think its probably got too cold.

Melons like really high temperatures, and night temperatures are not warm enough outside yet.
In fact they are best grown under glass all summer.

 

Thanks Pete. I will give it some tlc and hope it survives. I know it says it's a melon but I thought it was just a shrub.:DOH:
