African Horned Cucumber

African Horned Cucumber

Also widely known as Kiwano, native to Africa, the African Horned cucumber is a climbing vine with spiny fruit that is best left to ripen to orange and eaten as a fruit. This very attractive yellow mature fruit is reminiscent of banana, lime and cucumber.

When watering, avoid watering leaves directly to prevent mildew.
