Lemon Cucumber
Origin: Australia
Item #: CUCUMBER004
This is a great and much
sought after variety of Cucumber. Sturdy, disease resistant vines produce
an abundance of lemon shaped cucumbers that are of a yellow color. Easy
to digest and never bitter, they can be eaten out of hand like an apple,
sliced or pickled. Variety is rust and drought resistant. Introduced in
the United States originally in 1894 by Crosman seeds of New York &
Hayward, California (who were established in 1838 and who were believed
to have found this cucumber variety in Australia). Crosman Seeds marketed
the Lemon Cucumber well into the 1940's and described them as:
"similar in appearance
to a lemon and is used for pickling or the seeds can be removed and (the
cucumber is) then stuffed with a relish. This cucumber is a boon to those
who are distressed after eating the common cucumber as this fruit can be
easily digested."
In guaging our customer's
opinions about our seeds, our strain of Lemon Cucumbers were one of the
best performers during 2002 and 2003! They performed marvelously for ourselves
as well.
