Thanks for all the answers

I have to say I can only tell you what the card said on it

Pepino Melon

however, it certainly doesnt look like the solanum

the fruit on the card looked like an Orange coloured Galia Melon

How do I pollinated the fruit?

Im a total newbie


For squash, you will notice that some of the flowers are on short stems
and others are on long stems. The easiest way to pollinate them is to
pick one of the long stemmed flowers, pull off the petals, and then
swirl it around inside the short stemmed flower for a couple of seconds,
and you're done.
