Notes

'Triumph' cucumber (Cucumis sativus 'Triumph') is a vegetable for the food garden and containers. 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. It climbs and grows fast, so give it a trellis. It blooms from early to late summer, and bees visit the flowers.

Pairs well with Scarlet runner, Nasturtium, Dill, and Sunflower.
