Description
Cucumis sativus
Excellent dual purpose cuke makes for crunchy pickles and great fresh eating!
This hardy variety shows resistance to at least 7 different common cucumber diseases, including many blights. Fruits are blocky, 5-6” long, and light in color, with white spines that rub off easily. Crisp flesh and thick skins make them hold up well to the picking process. Plant in partial shade if you’re a hot desert dweller, and you’ll get more production!
