Notes

'Qwerty' cucumber (Cucumis sativus 'Qwerty') is a vegetable for the food garden, 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. The climbing vines grow fast, and the fruit is ready in 50 days. Summer flowers draw bees.

Pairs well with Super Fantastic tomato, Pesto Perpetuo basil, and Nigra hollyhock.
