A fabulous little cucumber that looks a bit like a potato with its brown, speckly skin. Productive and small vined. Does not like very hot summer weather so will need afternoon shade. I have to grow mine under shadecloth with my very hot summers. Good flavour.
Uses: Eat fresh in salads or sandwiches.
Growing Conditions: Needs good, well drained soil. Water regularly in Summer. Some shade will be required if your summer are hot. Pick when there is still a little background green in the skin and the seeds have not started to toughen.
Grows well on a trellis.
