Grow a productive and flavorful Asian vegetable with Dark Jade Bitter Melon, a modern hybrid variety known for its deep green, heavily textured fruits, uniform shape, and reliable performance in warm climates. Bitter melon, also called bitter gourd, is widely used in Asian, Indian, and Caribbean cuisine and is valued for both its distinctive bitter flavor and traditional culinary uses.
Dark Jade produces vigorous vines that set fruit well in hot, humid conditions. Fruits are best harvested young while still firm and green, making them ideal for stir-fries, curries, soups, sautéed dishes, and medicinal preparations. As a hybrid variety, Dark Jade offers improved vigor and yield but is not recommended for seed saving.
You will receive:
✔️ 5 fresh, viable hybrid seeds
✔️ F1 hybrid variety (not seed-saving)
✔️ Carefully packaged for successful planting
