Cucumber Xylangouro Melon, 25 Seeds R and similar items

A delicious silky textured cucumber like melon originally from the Greek island of Chios. Mild lightly honey- sweet flesh is velvety soft, a superb heat tolerant cucumber substitute. Our seeds were shared with us from the St. Nektarios Greek Orthodox Monastery gardens in Roscoe, NY. We have shared seeds with this monastery garden in the past and were delighted went they sent us seeds for this large, lightly fuzzy cucumber like melon. The vines are vigorous and heat loving, producing masses of these “cukes” which are very similar to Armenian cucumber. Sprout: 7 - 14 days Ideal Temp: 70 - 90 Seed depth: 1/2 inch Plant Spacing: 18 - 36" Frost Hardy: No Full Sun Cucumis melo
