Cucumis sativus
Gourmet quality cucumbers growing up to 15cm. Delicately sweet, with tender, shiny skin. Plants are parthenocarpic (they develop fruit without fertilization.)
Manny also has an intermediate Powdery Mildew resistance. Plants don't require support, but you can expect higher yields when plants are grown over a trellis. Great for fresh eating, in salads or pickled.
