Bitter Melon (Goya, Nigauri)

(3/12) The Bitter Melon (Goya, Nigauri) plant on the second floor balcony is starting to produce fruit. These are from seeds that dropped, which makes this plant amazing. There is a fruit handing from the top, but there are a bunch in the cluster of leaves towards the bottom. Bitter Melon loves the sun, but the fruit do best when partially shaded or nestled amongst the leaves. Fruit exposed to the direct sun tent to ripen quickly and if not picked will explode, thus the dropped seeds.
(4/22) This Bitter Melon (Goya, Nigauri) plant really filled out and there are many Goya fruit inside the vines towards the bottom that are not visible.
(5/8) My Goya on the second floor balcony is getting so full and filled with fruit.
