'Parisian Gherkin F1' cucumber (Cucumis sativus 'Parisian Gherkin F1') is a climbing vegetable for food gardens, containers, and borders. It is typically grown as an annual. It is tender to cold, and the first hard frost will kill it. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy or loamy soil. It grows at a rapid rate and blooms from early to late summer. The flowers attract bees.

Pairs well with Scarlet runner, Nasturtium, Dill, and African marigold.
