VEGETABLES / CUCUMBER
Donated to SSE by Daniel Flyger (SD FL D) who got the variety in 1991 from Viola Neuharth of Hutchinson County, SD. Originally brought to South Dakota in the 1870s from Russia and historically grown by both the Hutterisch Mennonites and the "Schwartzmeer deutsch" (aka Black Sea Germans) who settled in Hutchinson County. Mrs. Neuharth was of Black Sea German descent and said this was the only cucumber her husband would let her raise for pickles. SSE Accession # 109324
