Harris Seeds Cucumber Slicer Seed
Best choice for home gardeners seeking disease-resistant, sweet white cucumbers.
These Cornell-bred slicers trade the standard green aesthetic for a striking, creamy white skin and a remarkably tender crunch. While they lack the classic look of a garden-variety cucumber, their vigorous disease resistance and consistent, sweet harvest make them a far more reliable choice for the home gardener.
