In stark contrast with the Xylangouro cucumber that I grew in the greenhouse, the Cretan cucumbermelon was an amazing and delicious variety of Cucumis melo var. chate or adzur.
The plants were vigorous, the flowers were uniform, the fruit had a nice texture and were just a joy to grow. They did so good in the greenhouse and had so much life to them, that soon after the first couple of fruit went to seed, I decided to find a place to plant them out in the garden.
