They can be added to salads, desserts and cooked dishes, they are delicious stewed with apples or dipped in chocolate. They can also be dried or used in savoury dishes with meats and seafood. The small cucumber beetle also enjoys feasting on the cape gooseberry although they munch only on the leaves. Hand pick any beetles that you see as they are capable of breeding into large numbers very quickly.Weed Warning: This old time favourite is very easy to grow. Birds and critters will enjoy its sweet fruit and it can be found growing in both native vegetation areas and occasionally in pasture areas. It is not a dominant weed but it can be somewhat of a nuisance when working to restore native vegetation areas. Native to South America

Gac

$24.00 ($24.00-$31.95 choose a size)

A perennial melon noted for its orange-red flesh, native to SE Asia. The aril around the seeds is a deep brilliant red, high in the carotenes lycopene and betacarotene. Traditionally, it is much esteemed as a superfood and is cooked in a variety of ways to enhance flavour. It can be made into both sweet and savoury dishes. Green fruits can also be cooked as a vegetable. Vines are either male or female so both are required for the plants to set fruit. Unusually, Gac vines may change between being male and female and may change from one season to the next. Hand pollinating allows for a better crop. They are a very vigorous vine and grow to 15m in any direction and require yearly pruning to suit the trellis built for it. In fact pruning the vegetative growth will increase fruit size. Suited to subtropical climates, but can be grown outside of this range with care. Will lose its leaves for the winter in a cool climate. In tropical areas its vigorous habit needs care.

Love these yummy flowers , love stewing with Apple and rhubarb . I grow about 6 a year in large self watering pots , because they are thirsty . I use the root mat afterwards to line my hanging pots . One day will grow extra and try jam.

we plant 6 plants each year. Yield is good. We make jam from the calix  after flowering. The flowers are very attractive. Since we learned the trick of using an apple corer to remove the calix from the seed , jam making is much faster!
