Cyclanthera pedata. Vigorous climbing vine reaching 8–12 ft tall, producing abundant, unusual green fruits with a fresh, distinctly cucumber-like flavour. Harvest young for fresh eating, salads and pickling; larger fruits can be stuffed or cooked. Highly productive and unique.  Also known as Bolivian cucumber.

8 seeds per packet

Start indoors 4–6 weeks before last frost. Sow ½–¾" deep and keep warm until germination. Transplant after frost, spacing 18–24" apart. Provide a sturdy trellis. Harvest fruits young and tender.
