Details
Introduced in 1968 by Cornell University, Marketmore is a beautiful, dark green cucumber that’s ready to pick when 6-9" long. Fruits keep their size and shape even under poor weather conditions unlike other varieties that may curl and become misshapen. The high-yielding 4-6' long vines continue to produce with regular picking. A great slicer with an excellent sweet, mild flavor.
