Native to Mexico and Central America, this unique vine produces tiny, watermelon-shaped fruits that combine the crispness of a cucumber with a refreshing hint of citrusy tartness — a true garden and culinary novelty.
The Mexican Sour Gherkin produces abundant, grape-sized fruits about 1 inch long, featuring light and dark green striping reminiscent of miniature watermelons.
