Hi All,

I just got back in from watering the children. I got me
a mystery plant. It is one of those 1/2 price, late in
the season close out plants (they can grow at the store
or in my garden, I don't care).

The tag said "lemon cucumber". I seems to love my ground
pots, so I picked up three more at 1/2 price. Then
I started to have a good look. The first one had leaves
four times the size of the other three, and it had a
very zuke looking flower on it. HMMMMMMMMM. It will
be fun to see what it really is when it fruits.

We grew some of those a couple years ago.


Curiosity is killing me!

They grow lemon shaped cucumbers vs. the long slender type cukes. I
guess they were tasty enough. LOL I'm thinking, if my memory serves me,
the flavor wasn't bitter and the ones we harvested were very crunchy, too.


I managed to get a few two years ago. They are incredibly good eating.
last year's all failed. I just eat them straight. I can't bear to
mix them with other stuff. They have small stickers that rub right off.
