Seedling, Cucumber, Nostrano
Cucumis sativus
This short and sturdy cucumber has slightly spiny skin. The spines break off easily bly gliding the hand across the skin leaving just the great tasting cucumber. Summer menus basically require this cucumber since it is so light and refreshing. Very robust and productive variety.
