A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The Food Garden Forum Fruit Forum Vine Peach

Has anyone grown a member of the melon family called the vine peach? The info I have differs as to whether it's native to N. America or an asian import. A few seed suppliers still them as a novelty, but specifics are scarce. The fruit is supposed to be about the size of a peach, but taste more like a mango. If anyone has experience with this I'd like your input before I commit any of my miniscule garden space to it next spring. Thanks.

Thanks for the info popito. Anyone else planted and/or actually eaten these?
