Little Leaf pickling cucumbers are exactly what they sound like: small 3-5" fruits on compact, multi-branching vines. Fruits are perfect for snacking or pickling, and stocky vines will produce decent yields even under stress.
This variety is also well-known for its striking emerald green color and high disease resistance to a number of common garden diseases like Angular Leaf Spot, Anthracnose, Cucumber Mosaic Virus, and Powdery Mildew.
Creeping vines will spread, but compact behavior means that Little Leaf can be planted only 18-36" away from other plants. Vines can be trellised to save even more space.
Plants are available in 4" containers beginning the week of 4/28.
