Poona Kheera Cucumber
Cucumis sativus
Truly one of the strangest cucumbers you'll probably ever see. Poona Kheera bears bulging fruits that ripen to brown, making them look like potatoes! Traditionally, the fruits are eaten when green, or when light browning begins. The fruits not only look unique but also have a very nice flavor, sugary sweet, with crisp and juicy flesh. Plants show good disease resistance.
