Although not a true cucumber, this wonderful old heirloom is really beginning to get quite a following. The small grape-sized fruit look more like miniature watermelon, and easily fall off the vine when ripe. The flavor is a surprising sweet/sour mix of sweet cucumber flavor and a tartness reminiscent of pickles, and the small size makes for great snacking or for a surprising addition to a salad. Vining type that is best for fence or trellis. UNTREATED
