Notes

'Dar Cucumber' cucumber (Cucumis sativus 'Dar Cucumber') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and borders. It is typically grown as an annual. It is not cold-hardy and will not survive freezing temperatures. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy or loamy soil. It blooms from early to late summer, and the flowers attract butterflies and bees. Plants spread 35 to 94 inches, so give them room.

Pairs well with Dill, Nasturtium, Sunflower, and African marigold.
