Native to Central America, the Mexican cucumber is easy to grow and can be trained on a trellis or wire mesh where it clings by means of tendrils. One plant can cover nearly two square meters and produce between 10 and 15 fruits. Calculate one month between the time of sowing and transplanting outdoors once the risk of frost has passed.

Also known as miniature watermelon, candied cucumber, mouse melon, zehneria and cucamelon, this curious vegetable yields edible fruits that are harvested when they are between 2 and 4 cm long. They are eaten fresh or pickled like gherkins. Russians are also fond of these pickled vegetables, which they enjoy with cold cuts. Their pale and dark green mottled skin is reminiscent of watermelons.
