It's listed as monoecious rather than parthenocarpic. Monoecious plants will
produce male and female flowers. Gynoecious varieties produce only female
flowers and are usually sold with a percentage of a monoecious variety as a pollen
source (the seeds of the pollenizer may be dyed so as to mark them).

"Sweet Success" is a cucumber that is parthenocarpic and will form seedless fruit
when grown in isolation.
