Since 1920, Yates (Australia) has been marketing oval-round cucumbers. This unique egg-shaped fruit ripens from white to yellow and is as large as a lemon, usually slightly prickly with black prickles that come off easily. The taste of the white flesh is fresh and mild. A surprising combination of shape and taste! Outdoor cultivation is becoming increasingly successful...

GENERAL INTRODUCTION TO CUCUMBERS:
Cucumbers, which develop long vines, may be pruned regularly. For outdoor cultivation, a reasonable summer is needed (depending on the variety), and all varieties grow well in a greenhouse. Sometimes it is advisable to let the plant grow outdoors if fruit set fails! Cucumbers are usually harvested unripe, unless the skin becomes particularly beautiful when ripe. Unripe fruits are sliced and eaten raw in salads; ripe fruits can be scooped out like a melon. Many small cucumber varieties or (extremely) young harvested fruits are eaten as gherkins (pickled) or as a healthy snack with a drink or meal. Pay attention to the individual descriptions of our species and varieties; some are purely ornamental and NOT edible!
