Dragon's Egg Cucumber

This cucumber was definitely a favorite out of my garden this year. It has a mild flavor and goes great with salads. The exterior is a creamy white with a slightly green interior. It was a prolific grower and I was able to give many away to family and friends. I will definitely buy more next year.

Have grown these 2 years now, can't say enough good about them. Huge vines, incredible yields of slightly greenish white fruits with skin so delicate you can eat right out of the garden. Not a pickling variety per se, but we have done as fridge pickles and water bath canned and they are delicious! Grew 2 vines this year and canned 12 quarts of pickles, ate tons in salads, pureed for a cold soup and STILL had more to give away and compost! Growing in rasied beds in zone 7. These and crystal apple are mainstays in our summer garden - we can even get a second round in during late summer/early fall.

So great, long small vines that liked climbing the tomato supports! Plentiful! Pickled some to see what happens! Will Plant again! Friends made mistake thinking they were squash and sauced them with garlic and said they were great, ha!

Not cream colored,and defintely not "delicious", very few cucumbers per plant. and very disease prone. I live in Western NY and gave half the seeds to my brother who lives in Southern Georgia. His cucmbers were the same i.e. not cream colored, not much flavor etc., so it wasn't growing conditons.

This cucumber is so fun to grow. My kids thought they were the best thing to come out of our little garden. It tastes really good, not bitter like some cucumbers I've grown. My plants weren't heavy producers but I was still satisfied with the look and the taste.
