Rock Melon is very delicious and aromatic. Juicy. Sweet. Delicious.
I absolutely have to try to grow some in my garden. Easy to grow? Difficult? I don't know.
I bought one the other day in Giant Supermarket and it cost RM7.99 per kg! Yikes! So, expensive eventhough its grown in Malaysia. So, a small little fruit cost almost RM10.
I am going to try really hard to grow some.

I am not sure how long it will take for it to grow and fruit. But. I. Am. Going. To. Try.

Where did you buy these metal trelises? Are they expensive?
ReplyDeleteAutumn Belle: The metal electrical pipe can be purchased from the hardware shop. Its about 17 (I think) feet per pc. Request to cut according to the size of your trellis e.g. 6 x 5 x 6 ft. Prices varies from hardware shops. It should be between RM42 to RM48. They almost last forever. So, its good investment.
ReplyDeleteI think it usually takes about 3-4months for the first fruit.
