Some spell it in English, some in German, and some even refer only to the dried fruit as a \"loofah sponge.\" Ultimately, all these names refer to the same plant: the dried fruit of the species \u003cstrong\u003eLuffa aegyptiaca\u003c\/strong\u003e (formerly also known as \u003cem\u003eLuffa cylindrica\u003c\/em\u003e ). This climbing plant from the tropics produces green, cucumber-like fruits and develops its characteristic, airy network of fibers when dried – precisely the natural material we use here as a sponge. Whether you call it loofah, lufa, sponge gourd, or loofah, it's always the same botanical species – just with many names and uses.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"MadeByForest","offers":[{"title":"Individually \/ 1st choice","offer_id":53379338961225,"sku":"MBF5000","price":4.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Individually \/ 2nd choice","offer_id":53379338993993,"sku":"MBF5002","price":3.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"3-piece set \/ 1st choice","offer_id":53379339026761,"sku":"MBF5001","price":12.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"3-piece set \/ 2nd choice","offer_id":53379339059529,"sku":"MBF5003","price":10.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0903\/7850\/2473\/files\/MBF5000LuffaHeadshot.png?v=1763856588"},{"product_id":"melipona-stachellose-bienen-susse-probiergrosse-5-ml-vorbestellen","title":"Melipona – stingless bee sweetener (5 ml trial size) (pre-order)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"205\" data-end=\"263\"\u003eMelipona – stingless bee sweetener (trial size 5 ml)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"263\" data-end=\"266\"\u003e Melipona bees (stingless bees) collect nectar in the tropical forest and produce a rare, aromatic sweetness that differs significantly from classic honey: usually \u003cstrong data-start=\"450\" data-end=\"463\"\u003emore liquid\u003c\/strong\u003e , \u003cstrong data-start=\"465\" data-end=\"484\"\u003efruity-floral\u003c\/strong\u003e and with a \u003cstrong data-start=\"499\" data-end=\"525\"\u003eslightly sweet-sour\u003c\/strong\u003e note – depending on the flower and season.\u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"596\" data-end=\"599\"\u003e This 5ml size is intended as \u003cstrong data-start=\"624\" data-end=\"639\"\u003ea sampler\u003c\/strong\u003e : for getting to know the product, for comparing it, or as a small delicacy for special moments.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Made By Forest","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53789356687689,"sku":null,"price":29.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0903\/7850\/2473\/files\/IMG_5249.jpg?v=1770071249"}],"url":"https:\/\/madebyforest.de\/en\/collections\/alles-aus-dem-amazonas.oembed","provider":"Made By Forest","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
