🍋🥒 Lemon Cucumber Seeds — Crisp Citrus-Sweet Garden Jewels
Cucumis sativus
Cute? Yes.
Gimmick? Absolutely not.
Lemon cucumbers are sun-kissed spheres of refreshing crunch, with a bright, floral sweetness and zero bitterness. Thin skin, tender flesh, and a delicate snap that feels like you just bit into summer itself.
Round, golden, glowing fruits that look like tiny orbs of sunshine ☀️💛 — the kind that make your neighbors peer over the fence and question their life choices. Highly productive vines that pump out dozens of fruit, ideal for snacking, salads, pickling, and chef-y plating flexes.
Soft acidity + melon-sweet notes = a cucumber cocktail waiting to happen.
