Great and Visually Appealing!
These are a great addition to any summer salad and grew very well! Two years later we still have them coming up in the garden from the original plants! The only thing you have to watch with these is not to let them get overripe on the vine - I don't care for the taste when overripe! But overall a great and FUN take on the cucumber!
