Cucumber 'Silver Slicer'
(54 days)
35 seeds $3.00
Silver Slicer is the juiciest cucumber I've ever eaten. It is so refreshing in the heat of summer! The mild flavor is never bitter. It has a crisp texture that will give your sandwich or salad a bit of crunch.
The 5-6" fruits have a creamy white skin with bumps. The plants are resistant to powdery mildew for prolonged harvest into the fall. Very productive. Bred at Cornell University.
