Pepino Melon Seeds ~Solanum muricatum~ and similar items

Pepino Melon or Pepino Dulce ("Sweet Cucumber" in Spanish) is a unique fruit in the nightshade family (tomato, potato, pepper, eggplant) native to South America with sweet, firm flesh and dual colored white-cream skin with violet stripes markings. Pepino's are ideal in a container on the deck where it will flower and fruit heavily. They do not require pollination to produce fruit, however, a much heavier crop results from self or cross pollination (i.e. grow several plants and attract the bees). A small bushy plant with a woody base. Grows to about 45-55 inches high and 35 inches wide. The plants may benefit from staking.
