About C. pedata edulis
Prolific and rambunctious vines produce edible cucumber-like fruits in late summer and create shade and windbreaks when grown on trellises. When young, fruits are eaten raw. When mature, a large seed cavity develops which is perfect for stuffing and baking. Leaves can be eaten as greens.
