Cucumber-Yellow

The yellow cucumber is a commonly grown plant belonging to the cucurbitaceae family, which also contains squash and is related to the muskmelon.

Yellow cucumbers grown for fresh consumption and those grown for pickling have a lot in common. The flavor is great, a little sweeter than a regular cucumber. Plants are simple to cultivate and thrive in locations with short seasons since the fruits mature faster and require less heat to ripen than most cucumbers.
