description

The organic 'De Hollande' white cucumber is an heirloom variety as elegant as it is original, instantly recognizable by its long, brilliant white fruits that brighten the garden. With its rare and refined appearance, Cucumis sativus adds a touch of curiosity and distinction to summer crops, while offering a generous and flavorful harvest. Its tender, crunchy, and delicate flesh is wonderfully suited for fresh salads, as well as for making pickles for those who enjoy extending the flavors of the garden. Vigorous and hardy, this plant quickly unfurls its sprawling or climbing stems, enlivening the space with dense foliage and beautiful growing energy. Grown on a trellis or left on the ground, it adapts well to different garden styles, provided it benefits from warmth, sun, and well-drained soil. Its rapid production allows for gratifying harvests from the heart of summer, with firm and pleasant-to-pick fruits. Both decorative, productive, and refreshing, this heirloom cucumber captivates as much by its beauty as by its versatility in the kitchen. It is a charming heritage variety, perfect for enriching the garden with diversity, freshness, and originality.
