Organic Gourd Plant, Luffa (Sponge) - 3.5" pot

A vigorous, vining plant grown for both its edible young fruit and its mature, fibrous interior, which is used to make natural sponges for bathing and cleaning.

• Its bright yellow flowers attract pollinators.
• When young, the fruit is a mild, zucchini-like vegetable; when mature, it dries to a tough, fibrous sponge after the skin is peeled and seeds are removed.
