Cucamelon Seeds / Mexican Sour Gherkin Seeds

Cucamelon Seeds (Melothria scabra)

Commonly known as Mexican Sour Gherkin or Mouse Melon, Cucamelons produce adorable, grape-sized fruits that resemble tiny watermelons. With a crisp texture and a refreshing cucumber-like taste enhanced by a tangy citrus twist, they make a delicious and unique garden addition.

A favourite among home gardeners and chefs, these prolific vines yield an abundance of miniature fruits, perfect for fresh snacking, salads, and pickling. Growing up to 3–4 meters in length, the vines thrive when trellised or allowed to cascade from hanging baskets. To ensure the best texture and flavor, harvest when the fruits reach about 2.5 cm, as they can become seedy if left to mature further.
