Slender pale-white slicing cucumber.
Silver is one of the noble metals. And just like the metal, this cucumber withstands heat, time, and weather. Precious silver and this delicious slicing cucumber share other important traits as well. Both are resistant: silver to corrosion and oxidation from moist air, and the cucumber to powdery mildews also caused by humid conditions. Its bitter-free foliage also deters cucumber beetles. Let this silver-skinned cuke illuminate your garden, brighten your salads, and remind you to reflect on the joys of growing your own food.
 
Bred at Cornell University in New York, this is a great slicer with a creamy-white thin skin and long, straight, uniform 6-8" fruits. This cucumber has a superb juicy, sweet, and mild taste and good crunch, and has been winning tasters over since its introduction.
