sooby said:It's not likely to be a runaway domestic cucumber from the description. It does look close to wild cucumber, Echinocystis lobata but that would have spiny fruits on it like this - is this what they look like?



The hubby said they were "little spiney things like a tiny cucumber". The stems are fuzzy or furry and it has spiral things like offshoots (runners?). I looked at images of cucumber vines and it looked like a match to me. So I betcha you're right.
I agree
