This small tropical vine from the pumpkin family is used in eastern Africa as a green leafy vegetable, although conflicting scientific reports question its food worthiness and cite possible toxicity. Whatever the case, it is also a very attractive perennial ornamental. The common name refers to the brilliant red striped fruits growing in clusters on the stems. It is unforunate that it has the name cucumber because it is NOT edible.
