Kaiser Alexander Cucumber
The Kaiser Alexander is a classic outdoor variety, renowned for its robustness. It features a very unique cracked brown skin when ripe and a crisp, non-bitter flesh. It tolerates our region's climatic variations much better than classic greenhouse varieties.
Benefits for life A very hardy variety, it embodies peasant resilience. By limiting interventions, it allows your garden's ecosystem to balance naturally. It's a plant with character that requires few inputs.
A little note from PÉPI PÉPI Named in honor of Tsar Alexander I, this cucumber comes to us from Russia. In peasant nurseries, it is appreciated because it is not afraid to grow "out of the greenhouse" in Brussels. It is a historic variety that guarantees solid food autonomy, even when the weather is capricious.
Our prices: For each of our plants, we offer 2 prices. The basic price corresponds to the average price you would find in a garden center. The support price values the work behind our plants: peasant seeds, peat-free soil — because elsewhere, peat bogs are destroyed to fertilize your plants —, plants sown, transplanted, and nurtured by our hands, and zero import-export.
Whatever your choice, it's a good choice!
