Cucumber Sweet Success hybrid

1983 AAS Edible – Vegetable Winner

The 12-24″ long fruits are so tender and sweet you don’t have to peel them. Burpless, with a crispy white interior, it’s perfect for summer salads. An early maturing gynoecious, parthenocarpic hybrid. No pollinator is necessary to assure fruit set! When staked or grown on trellises, it produces a bumper crop of straight, medium-dark green fruit.

Widely adapted, Sweet Success is resistant to cucumber mosaic virus, watermelon mosaic virus, scab, and target leaf spot, as well as tolerance to powdery mildew and downy mildew.
