Ratings & Reviews
Prolific Cucumber
The Marketmore variety of Cucumber claims good disease resistance. I would personally upgrade that to excellent resistance, considering that other types in my garden are barely out of the ground before dying. Picked at around 20cm in length the flavour is great. Will climb on a trellis with little encouragement, ensuring well formed cucumbers. Will set fruit quite readily in a cool climate. Currently In June the vines are still growing strongly, and producing more cucumbers than I can eat. Gregg Jacobson
