Product details
Seeing is believing, like something out of a fairytale. A wee cucumber looking like a mini-watermelon. THE CUTEST.
Mouse melons, also known as Cucamelons or Mexican Sour Gherkins, are Native to Mexico and Central America. Crunchy and tart, they’re perfect for snacking right off the vine. They also make great pickles and cocktail garnishes. Be patient as they can be a bit slow to start, but once they get going they’re very enthusiastic and will often regrow from underground tubers. This vigorous vining plant grows well on a bamboo trellis.
Start indoors or direct sow in full sun when warm.
About the producer
Bria Phillips wanted to share her love of gardening with her three-year-old son, George, and other young gardeners, so she created Orange Pippins. She began curating seed kits filled with flowers and vegetables chosen for their ease of growing, impressive results, and delicious flavors.
Since then, Bria has navigated a move, a global pandemic, and the arrival of George’s baby sister, Grace. She still handpicks each variety of seeds in her products, from treasured heirloom varieties to exciting new varieties. Her passion remains getting new people into gardening and spreading the word that seeds are far more than tiny plants waiting to happen.
