Cucumber Lebanese 20 Seeds

Middle Eastern type with very smooth skin and tapered ends. Short vines with tender and sweet flesh without a lot of seeds. Excellent for slicing or sliced pickles. The smooth tender skin doesn't need to be peeled unlike other types of cucumber.

Cucumbers can be started in small peat pots then transplanted when weather is suitable. A trailing plant which will grow tendrils as it gets bigger. Lebanese cucumbers are best picked about 10 -12 cm (4 - 5 in) and eaten whole.

Grow in full sun. Grow up a trellis or framework to save space and keep the fruit clean. Needs ties to support it at first. Water regularly and fertilise to encourage growth.
