Poona Kheera

One of the most unusual treats is the Poona Kheera cucumber (Cucumis sativus). Of Indian origin, the plant bears fruit that are at first cream or light green in color then gradually turn light brown. The flesh is crisp, juicy, delicate, and uniquely delicious, very different from that of a conventional cucumber. Poona Kheera grows on strong vines that bear heavily.
