Notes

'Sweet Success' cucumber (Cucumis sativus 'Sweet Success') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and borders. 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. It is a fast-growing climber, so give it a trellis. Bees visit its blooms from early to late summer.

Pairs well with Nasturtium, Dill, African marigold, and Radish organic.
