| CUCUMBER
(Cucumis sativus) 25-35 seeds per packet. Originally an East Indian crop, but spread to other parts of Asia and Europe long ago. Best direct-seeded at about the time of last frost, but can be started earlier as transplants, provided the seedlings are set out before becoming rootbound. Cucumbers are heavy feeders and thrive in rich soil full of organic matter. They can be trellised if desired. A bit of afternoon shade is helpful in very hot summer-areas. Supply abundant moisture and keep mature fruit picked.

Dragon's Egg
New!
Beautiful cream-colored fruit are about the size and
shape of a large egg! Mild, bitter-free and sweet-tasting,
this little cucumber set massive yields in our gardens. So
fun to grow, and very unique-looking; great for children
and all who like delicious cucumbers. We were sent this
new favorite by Reinhard Kraft, a German seed collector,
but this heirloom originated in Croatia.
Item Code: CU147
