BLISTER GOURD SEEDS, Apple shape,(Lagenaria siceraria) Heirloom
$ 3.99
SKU P6508S
(Lagenaria siceraria) Heirloom, Live up Autumn displays with this light green colored gourd exploding with blisters. It is apple shaped, grows to a 9 x 12 inch size and weighs 4-7 pounds. Gourd plants are extremely vigorous and require a long, warm growing season, ranging from 95 to 120 days to maturity. Gourds are ready for harvest when the stems dry and turn brown.
Approximately 110 seeds per oz
10-15 days, 70-75°F. Start early indoors in pots and transplant after last spring frost. Soak seeds in warm water overnight before seeding. Can also be seeded directly in the field in warm climates after soil temperature is 72°F. ABOUT GOURD -- Gourds have as many uses as they do shapes, colors and textures. Bitter Melons are particularly good stuffed with meat, seafood or beans, as are hairy melons, especially when stuffed with pork and baked. Bottle and Calabash Gourds are excellent in meat soups or stir-fries. Young Luffas can be prepared just like zucchini. And while used in a variety of Asian dishes, the Winter Melon is the key ingredient for the famous winter melon soup, popular at Chinese banquets. The soup is cooked in the melon itself, and chunks of melon flesh are scooped out and served with the soup. Gourds used for eating and cooking should be harvested young, as they tend to grow bitter the longer they are left on the vine.
