Notes

'Cool Customer' cucumber (Cucumis sativus 'Cool Customer') is a climbing vegetable for food gardens, containers, and borders. It is typically grown as an annual. Frost will kill it, so set it out only after the last frost in spring. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy or loamy soil. It grows rapidly and bears fruit in 55 days. Bees visit its summer flowers, which open from early to late summer.

Pairs well with Mushroom Basket Tomato tomato, Persian basil, and Moss Curled parsley.
