Notes
'Homemade Pickles' cucumber (Cucumis sativus 'Homemade Pickles') is a vegetable for food gardens and containers. It is typically grown as an annual. It cannot take cold, and a freeze will end its season. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy or loamy soil. The climbing vines grow fast, so give them a trellis. Bees visit the summer flowers, and the fruit matures in about 60 days.
Pairs well with Celebrity Plus tomato, Pesto Perpetuo basil, and Giant of Italy parsley.
