Skip to product information
Grow a dramatic and versatile vine with Snake Gourd (Lagenaria siceraria), a traditional edible gourd widely used in Asian and tropical cuisines. This vigorous plant produces long, slender, snake-like fruits that can twist and curve dramatically, often reaching 3–6 feet in length under ideal conditions.
Snake gourds are best harvested young, when the flesh is tender and mildly flavored, similar to zucchini. Young fruits are excellent for stir-fries, curries, soups, and stews. When allowed to mature, the fruits develop a hard shell and can be used for ornamental display or crafts. The plant also produces large white night-blooming flowers, adding visual interest to the garden.
You will receive:
✔️ 10 fresh, viable seeds
✔️ Open-pollinated, non-GMO
✔️ Carefully packaged for successful planting
