Description

Not at all diva-like, but quite robust is the very popular in the USA, tasty and also visually attractive cucumber variety 'La Diva'. Small, beautifully shaped and with dark green, smooth, thin skin, it is perfect for the small meal on the go and in between. 'La Diva' is resistant to powdery and downy mildew and can be grown both outdoors and in a greenhouse. It can be well directed upwards - but you can also let it hang down on the balcony, like in a hanging basket.
