Yamato Extra Long Cucumber

This long, slender variety from Japan is excellent for sushi or snacking. Japanese cucumbers are among the best in the world, with sweet, nutty flavor, few seeds, and thin skin. Fruit can reach up to 2 feet long. We recommend using a trellis for straight, uniform fruit. Plants are notably disease and pest resistant and bear an impressive abundance of high-quality fruit.
