Lemon Cucumber

Also known as Apple Cucumber, Lemon is a very old heirloom cucumber variety dating back to 1894.  This unique variety produces vibrant, globe-shaped cucumbers that resemble lemons.  Popular for their bitter-free skins, a trait that also makes the vines resistant to cucumber beetles, Lemon cucumbers are ideal for both pickling and fresh eating. We prefer to pick them young, when the skins are a canary yellow color.  Plants are extremely productive, and cucumbers are easy to spot on the vine.  Harvests begin 65 days after sowing.  Each packet contains a minimum of 25 seeds.
