Re: Plant Identification
Looking at the leaves A. junceum is the only one that has very small round leaves 
Re: Africa Wild Plant Book: Wild Flowers
I think, these are different ones
Acanthosicyos naudinianus looks right for the first and the third one

Re: Africa Wild Plant Book: Wild Flowers
nan, I have checked the genus cucumber, and it's none of these, so by exclusion it can only be a Acanthosicyos sp and there are only two and the other one looks very different
So I think, this is one of the dreaded species with variable looks

Re: Africa Wild Plant Book: Wild Flowers
the two I posted are the same
one of the other, I'm not sure
and the last one, not sure at all
I take the name in the official information guide of KTP, where there is a picture (without the leaves) and it seems the same
I also have a look at Cucumbers.... not easy
and I'he got another one a bit different... but in Kruger
sorry there is a place where we can discuss of these cucumbers ....

Re: Africa Wild Plant Book: Wild Flowers
Ja, the fruits look different, but the leaves look all alike and there is not other species or genus that would fit, so make them all this one.
Post the Kruger cucumber and let's see.
