Notes:
Plant vine came through the fence from a field that isn’t planted with veggies, fruit or any organized farming. Just wild. We’re in South Texas.

It looks like a plum granny fruit. My grandmother grew them some fifty years ago in her garden. They were not edible but she grew them for the fragrance I believe. I haven’t seen one in years. Put it to your nose and sniff, it should smell like a very ripe cantaloupe sort of, https://www.georgiavines.com/optimgs/seeds/othervines/plumgranny300.JPG

Thanks for your reply Flower Fanatic. By “of no value” do you mean it’s inedible? Should I remove it immediately or wait to see what else it does?

Looks like some sort of cucumber hybrid that is of no value.
