Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Many people prefer the thin skin and superior flavor of so called pickling cucumbers. We agree, for this early fruiting old-timer is sweet and crunchy. We peel some of the skin off in stripes and slice for a delicious addition to salads. Six inch long smooth fruits are produced in abundance, truly a “Double Yield”. Fresh use and pickling.
