We're excited to be offering this super-diverse population of cucumbers from longtime EFN grower Kevin Bane of Philadelphia, Tennessee. Derived from population-level crosses between a Joseph Lofthouse cucumber population, some long East Asian-type cucumbers, as well as others added to the mix, the results are plants that are resilient and productive, with fruits that are diverse in form but uniformly delicious in flavor. Still on the hunt for that perfect cucumber for your unique tastes and growing situation? Try breeding it yourself from this diverse population!
