Okinawan White Jyunpaku (Mormodica charantia)
LANCIO SACCHETTI DI NATALE
Okinawa White Junpaku (Mormodica charantia): a natural wonder from the beautiful island of longevity. Not only for the beauty of its fruit, but also for its renowned nutritional qualities. Okinawa White Bitter Melon retains the typical flavor of the species, but is much softer. Furthermore, the closer it gets to ripeness, the sweeter it becomes, an exotic combination that surprises the palate. The seeds are enclosed in a pulp that also has a unique flavor; they resemble cherries and have a flavor reminiscent of black cherry, truly surprising. Easy to grow, it loves heat and full sun. It is a climbing plant, requiring support. It is very vigorous and is also suitable for an ornamental pergola. Production is massive; harvest the fruit at the first hint of orange appearing on the pure white fruit; it ripens very quickly. Cultivation ends with the first intense frosts.
For lovers of Japan, for those who want truly healthy cuisine, for collectors, in Europe, you will find it only with us.
