Nom nom nom! Mr Greedy loves chomping on these crunchy cucamelons! Mr. Men™ Little Miss™ Cucamelon 'Melothria' is a fast-growing vine that produces cute miniature melons, also known as Little Mouse Watermelons. They’re a doddle to grow, drought tolerant, disease-free and will happily grow in pots with some support to climb up. From July until late September, they produce masses of grape-sized fruit that taste like mini cucumbers with a lemony zing. You can add them to salads but you’ll have to be quick as kids will love snacking on them straight off the vine. This tender perennial can be overwintered in frost-free conditions for early crops the following season. Height: 2.4m (8ft). Spread: 50cm (20").
