Description
The Cucamelon Plant is a delightful and strange climbing plant that makes a lot of little fruits that appear like little watermelons. Cucamelons, often called Mexican sour gherkins, taste like cucumbers with a tangy citrus edge. They are great for salads, snacking, or pickling.
This strong and beautiful climber does best in greenhouses, polytunnels, or a warm, sunny, protected area outside. You can train it to climb on a trellis, cane frame, or fence, which makes it a great choice for gardeners who want to grow something unique in a tiny space.
