Cucumber, Heirloom 'Lemon Duke', Organic

Cucumber, Heirloom ‘Lemon Duke’, Organic

Our heirloom Lemon Cucumber is an old-fashioned variety dating back to the 18th century and probably even beyond.  They are small and round with lemon-coloured skin and the lime-green flesh is very juicy and sweet. Great for children’s snack boxes.

Cucumbers grow on vines and can be harvested for up to 10 weeks depending on weather conditions. They have been used as a vegetable for almost 5,000 years and were first grown in India, where they were developed from a native species. From there they spread into China, Greece and the Roman Empire. There are several different colourings and shapes available and we are aiming to grow a wide selection throughout the year.
