Cucumber Cucamelon - Moss Greenhouses

Cucumber Cucamelon: Many beautiful vegetables can grow in your garden, but if there is one that deserves to be called cute, it’s the cucamelon. It’s not difficult to see why they are also called mouse melons: The one-inch fruit looks like a watermelon that a mouse would lug home from the market. Botanically, the cucamelon (Melothria scabra) is neither a cucumber nor a melon, though it is part of the larger cucumber family (Cucurbitaceae). A fast-growing, vining plant, the cucamelon is a frost-tender plant. Small yellow flowers appear in the late spring to early summer and are followed by the striped green fruits. The flesh of the fruits is white. Cucamelons have a unique crunch and a cucumber-like but slightly tangy flavor. 65 Days Heirloom Size Available: 1201
