Product details

Pepino melon is a juicy, delicious, pleasantly fragrant berry grown from the foothills of South American Andes Mountains. It belongs to the nightshade or Solanaceae, the same family as tomatoes, eggplants and capsicums. This little-known fruit is naturally adopted to low lying forests of Andean mountains of Peru, Colombia, and Bolivia. In the US, Californian state produces them at commercial scale but its production is just limited for local consumption. Recently, New Zealand and Australia grow them for exporting purposes. Scientific name: Solanum muricatum. Some of common names include mellow fruit, tree melon, melon pear, sweet cucumber (pepino dulse) and melon shrub.
