Cucamelon - Mexican Sour Gherkin
Cucamelon — the Mexican Sour Gherkin — is the garden conversation starter that tastes as fun as it looks: grape-sized fruits that look exactly like tiny watermelons deliver a crisp cucumber flavor with a bright, citrusy tartness that makes them irresistible eaten straight from the vine, pickled whole, or scattered over salads for a whimsical, crunchy garnish. Prolific, drought-tolerant vines produce abundantly all summer and the fruits keep well on the vine without going soft.
