About Cucumbers
Cucumbers are warm-season vegetables that thrive when temperatures are in the 70s-80s F. They’re planted after the last frost of spring, and they can be planted again in midsummer for early fall harvest.
Cucumber plants are fast growing vines that typically take over any trellis you give them, though there are more compact bush varieties available that might be better suited for small spaces or containers. Cucumbers are pretty plants, with large leaves, yellow flowers, and curling tendrils.
