Looking For

Noblesville, IN(Zone 5a)

Need seeds of a cucumber that I got in trade a few years back. They were marked
experimental slicing cucumber. They are the best and I can't find anymore of them. I know I had some but they are not anywhere I have searched.

More info. -found the package I had and it says Early Bird Garden Cucumber experimental fancy green slicer.

I searched Google and found this spreadsheet that list this cucumber and it says they got it from R.H. Shumway's.

Molly,

It isn't on their site so I emailed them but haven't heard back yet. Thanks

Oh good. I hope they still offer them or know where you can get them. :)

Valdosta, GA(Zone 8b)

Did you hear back from R.H. Shumway's yet?

On this person's link they received the seeds free from R.H. Shumway's in 2008 because they were experimental. So I guess Shumway's is going to be the only place to find them. I sent them an email to see if they will respond to me. :)

I got a response from Shumway's and they have your tomato. Here is the response I received.

Good Afternoon:

I believe the cucumber was the Marketer - item 02129 on page 25 of the current catalog.

Thank you for your interest.

Molly it sounds like the right cucumber but the only problem now is they want $4.00 postage. Thank you for looking for me.

Marketer was developed back in 1943. Are you sure this is the same cucumber?

Noblesville, IN(Zone 5a)

No I'm not sure at all. I do wish I could find the exact one.
