interesting!! I never knew that could grow in Canadian weather Sue,as our summers here are so short. Granmama have a big tree in her yard space and mostly they just stay on the tree or fall to the ground and she use it when it dry to scrub her heel back she says
(((((granmama))))) her loofah though I think is a different version as they do not grow that long is a shorter version.....same family though.
When they are mature they turn a brght crimson colour. She did ask me if I want some to carry back as I told her I use loofah in my beauty routine and they use it at the spa. Go see customs open my suitcase a Canada and see them and ask me Miss is wot this
yes the board really a stretch out.
edited to add.....granmama version look like this.....and crimson in colour like a pumpkin when mature and by that time they are dry and stiff to the touch. that is when she use them for her beauty routine.....
