Notes
Tokiwa Tokyo Green Cucumber cucumber (Cucumis sativus Tokiwa Tokyo Green Cucumber) is a vegetable for food gardens, 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 blooms in early to late summer and attracts butterflies and bees. It spreads 35 to 94 inches wide, so give it room.
Pairs well with Dill, Nasturtium, Sunflower, and African marigold.
