Great addition to my garden

These Melothria Scabra seeds have been fantastic! They grew well in my garden, and the cucamelons were a fun surprise. The tiny fruit tastes like a mix of cucumber and melon.

Grows well but taste is hit or miss

These cucamelons are pretty interesting, but the taste can vary. Some were sweet, others tasted more like cucumber. Still, they grew easily and added a unique touch to my garden.
