Ridgegourd, also known as Beerakaya in Telugu and Turai in Hindi, is a highly popular Indian vegetable rich in fiber, vitamins A & C, and minerals. It is light, easily digestible, and a favorite ingredient in curries, dals, and stir-fries.
At Seed Vanam, our organic ridgegourd seeds are naturally sourced, non-GMO, and carefully tested to ensure high germination and strong vine growth. With minimal care, you can enjoy a continuous harvest of fresh, chemical-free gourds right from your garden.
Ridgegourd plants are climbers that produce high yields when supported with a trellis or fencing, making them an excellent choice for balcony gardens, kitchen plots, and farms.
