Luffa Sponge Gourd Seeds - Grow Your Own Natural Sponges (20 Seeds)
Grow Your Own Natural Luffa Sponges
Discover the original luffa sponge gourd seeds that produce large fruits on vigorous climbing vines, perfect for drying into homegrown sponges. These UK-sourced gourd seeds, though slow to start, grow into robust plants reaching up to 20ft with warm weather.
Sow in April for a harvest from late July to August. As a DEFRA-licensed quality seed supplier, we ensure high germination rates with minimal packaging in foil ziplock packs. Soak seeds overnight, plant in a heated propagator, and acclimate outdoors after frost. They thrive in full sun with sturdy support, needing minimal feeding and consistent moisture.
Harvest in autumn when gourds turn brown and dry, then extract the sponge by breaking the end cap and rinsing. Ideal for eco-friendly, fun gardening projects!
