Northern Willamette Valley 2022. Lousy weather May/June put us a month behind. This cucumber grew just the same. Yield was low because of the weather, but the quality was off the hook fantastic. Have always loved this type of melon/cucumber. We call the fuzzy wuzzies. These will always be part of our summer garden.

Very productive, trellised and vines grow inches everyday. Fruits are good size, few, if any, seeds and delicious. Takes the heat well since we have over 45 days of 90+ deg in No. Nevada. Will do these as a regular garden item.

I'm stubborn when it comes to cukes. I grow White Wonder, Delicatesse, Akur, Lemon, Poona Kera & Carosello. Each of these are unique to look at and in flavor. Carosello looks like a melon! And boy is it delicious. Never bitter! No matter how hot it gets. Unlike Lemon, it's very productive. It's so distinctive that folks called me on the phone to ask what about it. Now they ask for it! I pickle White Wonder & Delicatesse. But the Carosello never makes it past the salad. Try it just mixed with tomatoes!
