Cucumber 'Mouse Melon' or 'Mexican Sour Gherkin' Plant (4" Pot, single)

These incredible, small cucumber-like fruits look like baby watermelons. They are great added to salads, and stir fries, or can be pickled. They have a cucumber-like taste with a touch of lemon. They are also known as Mexican sour gherkins because the fruits turn more sour as they mature. The ornamental vines have small leaves and tiny flowers and are perfect for the cottage garden. Very unique and fun for kids with huge yields. They also have great disease resistance. A terrific container or hanging basket variety! These were a major hit at the farmers’ markets and sold out every week.
