Greenhouse variety. This mini cucumber is perfect for smaller households.

It is a heavy cropping, high quality variety with a very high tolerance of powdery mildew.

It is self pruning as the laterals make very few nodes and stop naturally with a flower cluster.

Features

F1 Hybrids are crossed varieties that are exceptionally vigorous and longer lasting

I've just picked the final Ilas from my cold Yorkshire greenhouse. Excellent flavour, 100% germination rate, hassle-free plants. 2 seeds produced more than enough sweet 6" - 8" cukes for our 2-person household; we gave several away over the summer months and still had plenty left for salads, sandwiches and even soups. The only sadness is that I initially planted all 5 of the seeds in the packet--oh me of little faith!--and had to throw out 3 perfectly good seedlings because there was nowhere to plant them!

These seeds are fantastic on the window sill, I got roughly 6 cucumber fruits per plant last year! They come out white on the inside and are very flavoursome. If you don't believe me then look at this picture of the crop: http://teengardener.wordpress.com/ In the banner of the website is one of the many cucumbers I grew.
