Title: Looking for Cucamelons for Tomatiloe seeds
Post by: Jitterbug on February 13, 2013, 20:58:27
Hi there

I have bought a pack of James Wong's Tomatiloe seeds and would really like to try the cucamelon seeds. However they did not have any in stock.  Any one got any to swap please.

Kind regards

Jenni

If I'm not mistaken, Melothria scabra (cucamelons) are sold by Realseeds as Melothrie. Fairly sure its the same thing. Shoot me down if I'm wrong. Sorry I haven't got any, but thought I'd say this in case somebody can help but didn't know it!

Nicky's seeds have them too.  aka Mouse Melon - looks like a watermelon, but tiny.
