Cucumis sativus
Cucumbers or a warm seasoning plant with Spiraling vines, large leaves and curling tendrils. The plants leaves are arranged alternately on the vines with 3-7 pointed lobes which are fuzzy.
Cucumbers are originally from South Asia that grow on almost all continents. They prefers sandy soil, but grow best in acidic soil. I found this cucumber plant in my backyard in my garden in Plumas Lake, CA.
