Cucumis sativus

Looking for an open-pollinated alternative to the common English cucumber? Try this one for size.

This cucumber is not called long for nothing – it can get up to 80 cm if left to grow out. We prefer the flavour and texture at around 40-50 cm; the small cukes as thick as your thumb are really sweet and tasty. Stores wonderfully.

Trellis to keep the cucumbers straight.


Standard packet contains approx. 15 seeds

Petite packet contains approx. 5 seeds

Planted this last spring and the cucumber was very tasty!

I planted 10 seeds on 20/11/2023. Today 27/11/2023 6 seedlings germinate. Waiting for the rest to show. Planted it direct in a bed in my garden.

Poor germination rate. Very poor fruiting, Disappointing.

AD Nel 07/11/2014

1 Out of approx 20 seeds have germinated, which is disappointing. I will advise if it reaches fruiting.
