Wild Cucumber is a fast growing annual vine up to 25' long that will cover a fence or wall.
The fruit are crazy looking and decorative, inside they're like a small luffa sponge.
We collected these seeds locally in our old farm yard where they've been growing wild behind our barn by self seeding for at least the past twenty years.
Stratification Required: 2 months
Planting instructions: Fall plant into prepared seed beds, or cold stratify in the fridge and spring plant. Sow 1/2" deep and cover with mulch.
