It’s related to the cucamelon (M scabra) and is also a perennial. Pictured fruits are ripe. When they turn darker green they are no longer edible and when they are black, are stinky and work like ipecac.
Please let me know if you want seeds to this when I pass out native edible seeds this fall. More in AltText.
@ludibriumventis@plants I am only collecting seeds if people want them bc they’re rank when ripe. I squish out the seeds outside and wash my hands afterwards so the smell doesn’t stink up the house.
I have more seeds that I will pass out later and hope to mail everything by beginning of November to save on mailing costs. I will have pawpaws, persimmons, Boehmeria cylindrica, physalis grisea and more.
I will save some seeds for you. Let me know if you want others.
