Species Characteristics:
- The Horned Melon, also known as the Kiwano Melon, is a trailing vine plant of the Cucurbitaceae family native to the semi-arid regions of southern Africa. The plant grows vigorously and has good fruit-setting ability. The fruit is in a unique olive-shaped ellipsoid form, about 12 centimeters long and about 8 centimeters in diameter. Its surface is densely covered with spiny protrusions, resembling a sea cucumber with spines, and a single fruit weighs 100-200 grams. The fruit peel is bright green during the growing period and turns golden yellow after maturity, with a fruit development cycle of 30-40 days.
- The pulp of this variety is gelatinous, multi-seeded, with a delicate texture, full of juice, and has a unique flavor. It can be directly sucked with a straw. The taste is sweet and the flavor is like a blend of banana, lemon, and cucumber, leaving a lingering pleasant aroma in the mouth after consumption. It is not only rich in nutrients but also has both edible and ornamental values. It is resistant to storage and transportation, has a wide range of cultivation adaptability, and is suitable for planting in open fields, greenhouses, and conservatories. It prefers a hot and dry climate, has strong disease resistance in environments that are not highly humid and rainy, but is not cold-tolerant.
