Arkansas Little Leaf Cucumber Seeds
Cucumis sativus
Arkansas Little Leaf Cucumber Seeds (55 days)
Developed by the University of Arkansas.
Great cucumber with very compact vines for those tight on space.
Makes a nice trellis of cucumbers in a pot culture or whiskey barrel.
Parthenocarpic, meaning if you have lost all of your pollinators/bees this cucumber will still set fruit no problem.
Smaller leaf size makes finding fruits easier.
Fruit is emerald green, mid-size and perfect for slicing or pickling.
Disease Resistant: Angular Leaf Spot, Anthracnose, Bacterial Wilt, Cucumber Mosaic Virus, Downy Mildew, Powdery Mildew, Scab.
It was on July 24, 2020 that I planted the seeds in a container outside. I live in South Carolina, so still very warm (aka - hot). They sprouted in about 4 days and by August 22 were climbing nicely. First blossoms appeared August 28. Yesterday I had a few fruits setting on which are about 3/8" long. It will be warm here through September and into October, so I'm hoping for some nice cukes.
All of the seeds I planted germinated. I am enjoying lots of cucumbers each day. They taste wonderful!
I don't have many pollinators, so I love these parthenocarpic cucumbers. I'm growing them in barrels. My plants are loaded with blooms and cucumbers. They are beautiful and delicious and are great for pickling or slicing. I like that they were developed by the University of Arkansas which is only 30 minutes from my home.
