My wife bought a variety called "Blonde something or other". They started green-yellow and got more yellow as they got bigger. They got bigger and bigger as I waited for them to turn green. Finally I guessed that the "blonde" meant that they were yellow and decided to try one and they tasted fine, just with yellow skins. They look just like a pickling cucumber, but with yellow skins. I seem to remember lemon cucumbers being more round and actually having a faint citrus flavor. |
