  • Description
We have a very limited quantity of seeds of the actual Non-GMO, Open-Pollinated Cucamelon Melothria Scabra. Real Cucamelon seeds are quite rare to find! Cucamelons are reported to be quite tolerant of dry low water growing environments. In addition, they can accept very warm growing conditions.

* You could grow these like a perennial cucumber! You just have to lift the root at the end of the growing season and store in some lightly moist compost until the next growing season or just grow them as a super exotic houseplant!

* They are comparable to cucumbers but "Far" superior as Cucamelon, by many accounts, have better taste, are easier to grow, much more pest resistant etc...

* The biggest advantage that cucamelons have over cucumbers, though, is that they don't require fancy training or pruning that cucumbers require. You just have to give them a little support like a small bamboo stake and let them take over from their!

* You can also plant Melothria Scabra very close together. In fact, space them about 6 inches apart and they'll thrive for you!

* There flavor is similar to cucumbers but has a hint of lime flavor to it.

* The Cucamelon is super easy to grow and a fantastic starter plant for the beginning gardener.

* Melothria Scabra has many names including: Mouse Melon, Mexican Sour Gherkin, Mexican Miniature Watermelon, Cucamelon and Pepquinos.

* Cucamelon just recently made its way to the United States and is gaining popularity extremely fast!

* This beautiful growing, vining plant can quickly work its way up a Trellis and provide excellent privacy. It makes a wonderful natural fence as well.

* The Cucamelon is native to South American and Mexico where it is referred to as Sandiita or little watermelon.

* The Cucamelon, originating from Mexico, is a very drought tolerant plant that can withstand extreme heat and little moisture. It would be an Ideal Cucumber substitute for those watching their water usage like in California and the desert Southwest.

* They're able to pollinate themselves so you could have one plant and produce fruit!

* The Cucamelon would be excellent to have on an apartment balcony growing. It does excellent in containers and would provide additional privacy.

* You can also prepare Melothia a number of ways including pickling just like cucumbers or sauteing with some Olive oil. They're even used as an Olive substitute in Martinis. You're going to love these new plants!
