Notes
'Tasty Jade' cucumber (Cucumis sativus 'Tasty Jade') 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 pace and bears long Asian cucumbers. Bees visit the flowers from early to late summer.
Pairs well with Mountain Magic tomato, Persian basil, and Moss Curled parsley.
