Cultural Directions the large end. Plant where you intend it shall grow. 
Cover only the large end, leaving the small end exposed. (See picture.) Or let 
the fruit lie around until it has well sprouted, and then plant the seed, leaving 
the sprout well above ground. Give it abundance of water throughout the hot 
summer season. The Chayote is no longer a novelty. It has now become an 
article of commerce. It may be found on sale at many grocery stores through- 
out the season, which lasts from October until March. The vine is a rampant 
grower. The first year from seed it will grow 20 to 30 feet. Destroyed to the 
ground by frost, it soon sends out new growth, and during the second season 
will extend vines 40 or 50 feet in every direction. During September it starts 
blooming, having a small, white, insignificant flower. Within four weeks fruit is 
large enough for the table. A-trellis or other support is necessary. Cook in the
