Dragon Suhyo Cross Cucumber symbol_Tender Perennial we began harvesting in November60 days. Delicious and tender, these slicing cucumbers are a joy to grow and eat. The 13 inch long, slender fruit have dark green skin that's ribbed and slightly spiny but remarkably delicate. Ripening earlier than others in their class, these cukes boast a sweet, slightly floral flavor and produce continuously and abundantly throughout the season. For space saving and straight fruits, allow the plants to climb up a support structure. GY. IR: PM.
