Che (Maclura tricuspidata), also known as Chinese melonberry, is an unusual fruit tree native to East Asia and a relative of mulberry. 'Darrow' is a particularly desirable female selection known for its prolific production of large, maroon-red fruits, typically 1–2 inches in diameter. The ripe fruit is sweet, with a flavor often compared to a combination of fig and watermelon. This selection is self-fertile and produces seedless fruit without requiring a male pollinator.
