Notes
'Suyo Long' cucumber (Cucumis sativus 'Suyo Long') is a climbing vegetable for the food garden, 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 grows fast and blooms from early to late summer, which draws bees. Fruit is ready in about 61 to 65 days.
Pairs well with Navy bean, Teddy dill, Pesto Perpetuo basil, and Cherry Belle radish.
