Product description

Snake gourd (Chichinda) looks very different from other gourds. The Dwarf White Short variety is one of the shortest types of snake gourd, having white and waxy light-green skin with white stripes 🤍💚. These gourds usually grow straight and should be harvested when they are young because at the tender stage, the flavor is mild and similar to cucumber 🥒✨.

This variety is commonly grown for eating and medicinal purposes 🌿. Many gardeners prefer growing snake gourd at home because it is not easily available in the local market 🏡🌱.
