Crystal Lemon
Round, yellow, and about the size of a tennis ball. Looks like a lemon, tastes like the freshest cucumber you've ever eaten. A heritage variety that confuses visitors and delights everyone who tries it. Prolific and easy outdoors.

Crystal Lemon in gin and tonic
Slice thinly and float in a G&T instead of regular cucumber. The round yellow slices look extraordinary against the glass, and the flavour is cleaner and more delicate. A talking point that also tastes better.
