Cucumber (Cucumis sativus 'Lemon') - Description

Lemon Cucumbers are a big favorite in gardens everywhere. These heirloom cukes are definitely not the norm when it comes to cucumbers, as seen in its distinct round shape and light yellow color. Use as you would on all cukes as far as slicing and pickling (for some really unique pickles!)-- it is just the best in salads! Lemon Cucumbers are ready to harvest in 65 days, and then continue to produce for a long time.
