‘Tamra’

This superb variety was thought lost, but cucumber breeder Robert Bruns heard of our search for an early, disease resistant, non-bitter, cucumber, and sent us the last few seeds he had. From those few seeds we regenerated this variety back in 2002 – & it’s great. It makes lots of attractive thin skinned fruits, and has a really exceptional flavour – so much more tasty than a supermarket cucumber. A great choice for your greenhouse, but also grows well for us outdoors, though the fruits tend to be a bit smaller, especially in cooler summers.

Consider saving your own seed. Cucumber seedsaving is easy and there are free instructions in our ‘how to save seed’ link to the left of this page.
