Tendergreen Burpless Cucumber

I have 3 Tendergreen plants growing in a large container and I already have had more cukes than we can eat, so, we've started giving them away. Everyone loves them for their crispness and mild flavor. I am amazed at how early we started picking these cukes! I purchased Boston pickler and Dar cucumber seeds from Baker and will use those for pickling. But these Tendergreen cukes excel for fresh eating. This one is a keeper!

Grew them in a converted feeding trough on our deck. With the help of a wood trellis they climbed right up and produced well. The bees loved the flowers and we loved the cucs. We picked when they got to 6" and found them wonderfully tender. 4 plants keep us eating them for lunch and dinner daily. It's like cucumber heaven.

These hearty seeds produced so well for me this year. The cukes were the perfect size, color and had a wonderful flavor. Best cukes I've ever grown.

First year growing them. Tasted great and produced a lot! We had so many we shared with friends.

Disclaimer here - I've already reviewed this cuke last year, I just want you to know if you are looking for a no frills, not bitter, amazingly productive cucumber..... you might want to try this. My second year. Zone 6A (north, baby). Seed saved from last year. I planted a few more plants to cover a family member who wasn't going to have her own. Kept bushels. Gave away bushels. Threw away bushels (compost - don't yell). Bushels froze on the vine. I did make a bunch of bread and butter pickles and they work just fine for that, too. Try these.
