Marah macrocarpa is a perennial herb or vine that is native to California.
[Wikipedia] Uses: All parts of the plant have a bitter taste (this is the meaning of the genus name Marah, which comes from Hebrew). Despite this, the leaves have been used as a vegetable. The large tuber of the manroot can be processed for a soap-like extract. (link added by Mary Ann Machi)
