Cucamelon

Cucamelon

Melothria scabra

Wouldn't it be great to have really tiny cucumbers? Then you should try growing cucamelons! Cucamelons, or Mexican sour gherkins, give you lots of small fruits about 3-5 cm long. The green and white patterned skin brings watermelons to mind. The fruits offer a lovely mild tartness and are suitable for eating fresh or pickling in sugar syrup!
