Does anybody know if this type of cucumber is sold in NZ and if seeds can be purchased. It is also known as BURPLESS cucumber. Thanks

I'm eating 'em right now - bought it as a seedling from Oderings in Havelock North, very strong grower and plenty of large cucumbers.

Hi, Thanks for that. Is it true that they are self pollinating & wil grow in a hothouse in the winter!.

Definitely self pollinating - not sure how they would get on in a hothouse as I don't have one. I do know they're great eating and don't repeat on you like a lot of cucumbers do.

Thanks very much for that information. I will ring Oderings tomorrow. Cheers
