Everwilde Farms - 100 Wisconsin SMR 58 Cucumber Seeds - Gold Vault Jumbo Bulk Seed Packet

If you're looking for a great pickling cucumber, this is it! Wisconsin SMR58 produces small dark green cucumbers that mature in 50-58 days. The fruit is crisp and sweet! The medium-large vines produce heavy yields and are especially popular in northern regions with excellent disease resistance. Historians generally agree that the first cucumbers grew in India's Himalyan Mountains over 3,000 years ago. From this region they expanded into Greece and Rome; the Romans most likely spread this vegetable to the rest of Europe. The cucumber was widely grown by native Americans through the influence of the Spanish and other explorers. Cucumbers continue to be a vital part of traditional cuisine in Russia and many parts of Asia; the greatest variety of colors and shapes of this vegetable can still be found in its Asian birthplace. As the name suggests, the Wisconsin SMR 58 cucumber comes from the University of Wisconsin; it soon achieved the title of the best non-hybrid pickling cucumber.
