Cucumbers
This year we will have four varieties to try:
Homemade Pickles - A favorite from previous years, this cuke was especially bred for home pickling. They have solid, crisp flesh and excellent bite, and are also delicious when sliced and eaten fresh. At about 1 1/2 inches they make perfect sweet pickles, or can be left to mature to 5-6 inches for robust dills and spears. At every size they are firm and tender sweet!
Garden Sweet - This bitter-free variety produces loads of 10-12 inch long medium green fruits with faint stripes and smooth, thin skin. Burpless with sweet flavor that is perfect for slicing and fresh eating.
Diva - This burpless variety is deliciously sweet and the 5-7" fruit is great for both slicing and pickling. It has bitter-free, seedless fruit with thin, tender skin.
Perseus - Advertised as "quite simply the best cucumber for fresh eating", and we have to agree! Its 6" fruit has thin tender skin, crisp juicy flesh and an unbelievably sweet, refreshing flavor.
