African Horned Cucumber
Also widely known as Kiwano and is 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.
