Description:
Lagenaria siceraria, commonly known as the hard-shelled gourd, is a versatile plant with vines that can grow up to 16 feet long. It is prized for its durable shell, which can last for decades once cured, making it ideal for craft projects like birdhouses. The gourd has an emerald green color with light speckles and can have either a curved or straight neck. It matures in 80 to 140 days and attracts hummingbirds. This plant is well-suited for those interested in crafting and gardening.
