Cool Cucumbers

I was sent some grafted cucumbers by Suttons Seeds and they are looking in fine fettle with tiny cucumbers already in evidence. As cucumbers are always at their most delicious picked small and used straight away they are in a large pot in the courtyard just outside the kitchen door where I’m more likely to spot them and where they are convenient to pick. I might plant a mina lobata in the middle of the pot to add a touch of colour and attract the pollinators.
