This is the WHITE form of Chayote, an edible fruit native to Mexico. It grows from a vine belonging to the gourd family, Cucurbitaceae, along with melons, cucumbers and squash.
Sechium edule is a fast-growing sprawling perennial climber with ornamental deep green foliage. It bear lots of fruits called Chayote, in less than one year. It often dies back in winter or in drought and then comes back from the ground with renewed strength. Sechium edule grows very well outdoors on a fence or pergola in Tropical, Subtropical and Mediterranean conditions. It is finicky to grow in pots unless it is planted in large containers.
When cooked, chayote is usually handled like summer squash, it is generally lightly cooked to retain the crisp flavor. Raw chayote may be added to salads or salsas, most often marinated with lemon or lime juice. Whether raw or cooked, chayote is a good source of amino acids and vitamin C.
We offer one large fruit ready to sprout. These fruits-seeds germinate like coconuts, half-buried, at temperatures betweeen 15 and 28 C.
