Delicious. Haven't seen round ones for some years. :-)

That's where I last saw them - outdoors. My Dad grew them in window boxes outdoors here in Fife, so you should be OK with them next year. :-)

You're welcome! :-)

Remember to put something heavy in the bottom of the boxes first, as they can easily topple off the window ledge with the weight of the plants and fruit as they grow and tumble, or if the compost gets too dry one day.

That's a first on me.
How do they taste compared to the traditional cucumber?
