Lagenaria siceraria Marenka Limegreen is a beautiful, light green variety of the well-known Marenka gourd, selected from a natural mutation. This ornamental gourd combines decorative beauty, vigorous growth, and versatility, making it ideal for gardeners, hobbyists, and crafters seeking a striking plant for vertical farming, drying, or creative projects.
The light green color gives Marenka Limegreen a fresh, eye-catching look in the garden, on a pergola, or in craft projects, while the club-shaped fruits retain a characteristic and elegant texture.
The fruits of the Lagenaria siceraria Marenka Limegreen are light green, club-shaped, and distinctly grooved, about 20–30 cm long. This light-colored variety differs from the classic dark green Marenka in its bright, fresh color, making it ideal for decorative purposes.
The plant grows luxuriantly and vigorously, with sturdy tendrils that easily cling to pergolas, fences, or trellises. For straight, graceful fruits, it's recommended to train the tendrils along a fence or pergola, while growing in the ground creates interesting, natural shapes.
Marenka Limegreen is not suitable for consumption, but the fruits retain their shape excellently after drying, making them perfect for handicrafts, crafts, and decoration.
