About this seed

Why gardeners choose this variety

Luffa links two everyday uses of a single crop: young fruits are cooked as vegetables, while fully mature fruits develop the fibrous interior used as a natural sponge. It is a plant with a place in both kitchen and household traditions.

Climbing vines, large leaves and yellow flowers create a bold seasonal display on a strong trellis. Harvest tender young fruits for cooked dishes, or leave selected fruits to reach the dry, fibrous stage for sponge-making. Grow it in a warm, spacious vegetable plot where the two harvest stages can be watched separately.
