Where do wild cucumbers grow?
I just read that when a wild cucumber reaches full ripeness it explodes and shoots its seeds up to 20 feet away at 60 mph. So, I'm wondering where they grow and if anyone has ever witnessed one exploding.
It is called squirting cucumber and the scientific name is Ecballium elaterium. I believe that it is a native plant of Malta. It has been used for thousands of years as an medicinal plant.
Here is a you-tube video to watch

This is really cool! I want to grow one now.
