Description
Everbearing Cucumber - Top Producer
Continually produces fruits for the entire season if kept picked, living up to its namesake. It does its job with great regularity, earning it a perennial spot in many home gardener’s planting lists.
Crisp cucumbers have an excellent sweet, mild flavor, color and crunch. Vigorous, disease resistant vines loaded with fruit all season. Smaller lengths – about 4" – have a sweeter flavor, while the larger ones are more robust for spicier relishes.
History
Cucumbers are thought to have originated in India at the foot of the Himalayas, and cultivated in western Asia for 3,000 years. Well known by the ancient Greeks and Romans, introduced to China in the 2nd century BC. Columbus brought cucumbers to the New World in 1494.
Uses
Ideal for fresh slicing, pickling and processing into relishes and chutneys.
Growing Tip
Cucumbers need to be continuously harvested to keep up production. If the fruits yellow on the vine the plant will stop producing altogether. To harvest twist them off the vine or snip them with clippers to make sure you do not damage the vines.
