Swan Gourd - SeedsLagenaria sicerariaCalabash Gourd

When I have got two leaves plant me into 13cm pots and grow me in a bright position. After the frosts have gone, plant me outside in a sunny position 60cm apart.

Best grown on the ground - if allowed to climb necks will straighten when dangling from a support.

Pick the fruits from August onwards. Before painting, dry the fruits in a warm, airy position until they become lighter in weight.
