Vine Cucumber Seeds - Vegetable Plant

Vine Cucumber Seeds produce vigorous climbing cucumber plants that grow as long trailing vines and require trellis or support for best yield. These plants are highly productive warm-season vegetables that produce crisp, refreshing cucumbers used for salads, slicing, and pickling depending on variety. The vines develop broad green leaves and yellow flowers, followed by elongated green fruits. They perform best in full sun with fertile, well drained soil and consistent moisture.
