Kiwano_seed ~Kiwano~ Native to the Kalahari Desert, Africa African Horned Melon Jelly Melon, Horngurke, Hedgehog Gourd, Melano, African Horned Cucumber Family: Cucurbitaceae You are bidding on * fresh seeds shipped from Hawaii. Originally in the African Kalahari desert region, now cultivated throughout the world. As the focus of cultivation with New Zealand, Israel and Kenya is distributed in climates that Kiwano throughout the year is usually available on the European market over. Kiwano melon has a jelly-like flesh with a sweet/tart flavor that’s a mix of bananas, lime and cucumber. It’s eaten by cutting the melon in half and scooping out the flesh to eat raw or add to desserts or salads. When picked green and fully ripened, the fruit tastes like a mix of cucumber and Kiwifruit, dashed with a banana-like flavor mix of melon and lime. Cut open, it has a look is reminiscent of a cucumber. Sun Exposure: Full Sun Danger: Plant has spines or sharp edges; use extreme caution when handling Bloom Color: Pale Yellow Bloom Time: Late Spring/Summer/Early Fall Foliage: Evergreen, Herbaceous, Velvet/Fuzzy-Textured Other details: Requires consistently moist soil; do not let dry out between waterings Cucumis metuliferus The Kiwano (also known as the Horned Melon, Melano, African Horned Cucumber, Jelly Melon, Hedged Gourd, and/or English Tomato) is a fruit native to a region of the Kalahari Desert. The spiky, golden-orange shell encases a soft, succulent, seed-filled emerald green interior. The empty Kiwano melon shell half can be used as a unique serving dish, but shouldn’t be eaten. The warty-prickly skin and an interesting coloring demanding nothing less than a use as a decorative object. The pulp of 10-15 cm long fruit is green and is eaten raw. About the edibility of the fruit ranging opinions of banana-lemony-to inedible bitter or bland. The latter will have its base in the spread of wild plants seeds, which are in Africa because of the unpleasant taste only in “lean times” use. In any case, the fruit contains a lot of water and durability in a dry, cool place. However, a stay in the refrigerator has the opposite effect, it accelerates the destruction of Kiwano. Like all known conventional cucumber is also Horngurke one year, climbing climber, which can take enormous space by its rapid growth in a short time. From a size of about 0.5 m numerous side shoots are formed, a generously-built grids or tensioned wire is therefore necessary. If the plant has no way to grow up, it spreads like a groundcover until a way is found rank. The leaves can reach approximately 15 cm in diameter and are, like the stalk covered with fine, sharp spines. Particularly in larger plants can be annoying them people with sensitive skin./font> As a monoecious plant each copy bears male and female flowers. The male almost always be several in the leaf axils. The female, however are mostly individually and are also characterized by a highly visible, broad, with the typical “spikes” occupied ovary. Some plants will later carry up to 100 ripe fruits; Normally, the number is but less than the half.

If you buy the same species in that item it does calculate out the discount (i.e.: additional items) My stores’ combined shipping is built in for same items rather than a varied selection. Domestic S/H includes postage, USDA certification and inspection, proper packing and delivery to Airport for prompt delivery. I can’t really change any of these. If you want one of this and one of that, it is hard to discount much as each different species requires it’s own prep, packing, then at USDA each has to be unwrapped and inspected then repacked. USDA requires us to clean and prepare every last piece before we drive them to the Inspection Station on the other side of the island. This requirement takes my wife and I, 2-3 days to pack items and get ready to ship. The whole next day we drive around the island and get inspected (2-3 hours), then drive to the Airport Post Office to drop off. It takes the same work with the same type item if you can understand. Before you purchase After you Receive your Items. LIVE PLANTS ARE PERISHABLE. There is the risk when you grow plants that they may die. LIVE PLANTS are PERISHABLE, guaranteed not to live forever. US orders ONLY are GUARANTEED LIVE ARRIVAL. All International orders are shipped at the BUYER’s RISK! When you order a plant we assume you are prepared to care for it. It is your responsibility to know how to care for the plant. Do some research before they arrive or seek experienced help. Small plants need protection from many things, wind, sun, dry-out. They do well just in the garage or living room. They need good light but not sunlight (full sun will burn small plants). Small pots dry-out easily. Just sitting in a shallow tray of water works well. The idea is to keep the plants from dehydrating. Be careful if you decide to re-pot. Re-potting voids any warranty. Plants are easily damaged with new/different mix. Use NO fertilizers (this may kill your plants). Proper care is critical upon arrival. Live Plants are NOT GUARANTEED to survive under your care. DO NOT expect any live plant to be GUARANTEED to remain alive. Plants are NOT GUARANTEED TO SURVIVE after you begin Care! Live arrival is guaranteed, eternal survival is up to you. NO REPLACEMENT WILL BE CONSIDERED IF YOU HAVE REPOTTED THE PLANT. IF YOU are NOT able to provide PROPER CARE, PLEASE DO NOT EXPECT plant to be GUARANTEED after it perishes. BROWN THUMB WARNING: Please Do NOT email me after a week after receiving and repotting your plant, and make a claim it arrived damaged. All photo support must be as arrived in original condition when received (in the box and packed as delivered). If you repot your plant after delivery, all warranties are voided and no replacement is offered. You should use good gardening skills and repot if desired but at buyer’s risk and expense. If repotted, you are responsible for the condition of the plant. NO REPLACEMENT or REFUND WILL BE CONSIDERED IF YOU HAVE REPOTTED THE PLANT. Not every plant that I grow survives, and I am aware of that and accept the risk when I order. This is the risk that you as the buyer accept, because there is no way to know what kind of conditions it will endure in the trip to your door. My responsibility ends when a live plant is delivered to your door. You are agreeing to these terms when you make this purchase from this listing. eBay Return Policy If you need to return an item, be sure to follow these item condition guidelines.

Once planted, seeds can NOT be returned and no refund is offered. All seed sales are final. There are no germination guarantees. Seller warrants seed to be of the variety and quantity advertised. Safe delivery is guaranteed and seeds lost or damaged during shipment will be replaced at seller’s expense. Claims must be made within 7 days of shipment. All other replacements, refunds, returns and exchanges will be made at the sole discretion of the seller. Seed is a live product which depends on many important related grower skills such as proper planting time, seed depth, type of soil, irrigation, proper use of fertilizers, weed controls, fungicides, insecticides, disease free soil, and reasonable weather conditions during the growing period. Germination is affected by such factors as temperature, moisture content, light intensity and contamination of planting media. These factors are totally out of the seller’s control and are the buyer’s responsibility and risk. Consequentially, the seller cannot unconditionally guarantee seed to perform properly regardless of conditions or the buyer’s methods or mistakes.. Ma ha lo & A l o h a ! ! 7_heads Store
