    This is my fave cucumber and the only one I grow. It does stop here when we get insanely hot. But before then, it's mild and I enjoy snacking on it with nothing (dressing .. nada) on it. Have tried others that tasted soapy or bitter. Once I found this variety, I haven't strayed.

    Summer Dance is one of the most prolific large burpless cucumbers I've grown. It has been trouble free through heat and humidity and sets huge numbers of high quality fruits.
