This is a mix of several slicing cucumber varieties, prominently featuring an early Russian variety. They are excellent for pickling if picked young, and great for slicing in sandwiches and salads when a bit bigger. The plants are early, prolific, grow quickly, and keep producing late into the season. Excellent crisp flavour.

Early Russian is a very old heirloom variety from the 1800s. It's a great choice for cold climates. and short seasons.
