Notes
'Mojito' cucumber (Cucumis sativus 'Mojito') is a 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 climbs rapidly and blooms green from early to late summer, which draws bees. Fruits are ready in 50 days.
Pairs well with Moskvich tomato, Fernleaf dill, and Peaches and Cream corn.
