Sikkim is worth growing Review by manifest son
Overall Rating
I grew them for 2009 and I loved the bright flavor and crisp texture. I tried some in a container and they didn't grow well even with good sun. I planted one in May in the ground and it took right off. I think it would have taken over the neighborhood except for the unseasonably cool August we had in Missouri. Once the sun was not as intense the growth slowed considerably. For me it was a little finicky but worth it. I will give them a try again this year..

Great Unique Fruit, Smaller Yields Review by Unknown
Overall Rating
Regardless of the small yields I got the first season I planted this, It will be one of the seeds I order each and every year (another top choice that I have ordered for three years now is the Anana's Noire Tomato). The Sikkim suffered slightly this season, but will give it another chance, I believe our hot but dry season and my inability to water daily may have stunted the fruit size a bit, however it tastes like a cucumber although it looks like something out of this world. I describe it as having crackle paint rusty brown skin. Truly an amazing plant, and great for knocking the socks off your friends when you give them a gift of the fruit..
