Description
- Love the taste of cucumbers but wish they were more conveniently sized for snacking? Mini cucumbers offer the perfect solution
- ‘Minicrisp’ cucumbers typically grow to between 6 and 10cm long, making them the ideal size for snacking on
- Each bite of these mini cukes is packed with cool refreshment; put them straight into the lunchbox, grate and use in a creamy raita, or pickle with some garlic and dill for a tangy kick
- Perfect for growing in a pot on the patio, a raised bed in a sunny spot, a greenhouse or polytunnel, or even on a windowsill
- This is a “gynoecious” (a fancy way of saying all-female) variety which produces a high yield of fruits
- Plant a fortnight after the last frost date and harvest from June all the way through to October – what’s not to like?
- Our premium cucumber plants are grown on a family-run farm, in Lancashire, by veg experts who know their stuff (and then some). Your plants are always sent to you at the very best time for planting
- Want fresh, better-tasting produce with a lower carbon plantprint than anything you can buy at the supermarket? Grow your own!
- This cucumber plant is both easy to grow and simple to look after – you should see your first crop within 2-3 months of planting
