Put some Diva cucumbers in the greenhouse the other day.  Fresh Tomato's, Peppers, and Cukes in Dec/Jan.  Great stuff.

bred by Johnny's.

AAS trial judges throughout North America agreed;  "Diva just might be the best-tasting cuke on the planet".  

Diva looks like a regular salad cucumber but with a much smoother, thin, no-peel skin. Distinctly tender, crisp, sweet, bitter-free, and seedless; especially flavorful harvested small, about the size of a pickle. Plants are gynoecious (all-female) and parthenocarpic (grow fruits without pollination). Resistant to both mildews and scab. Foliage is non bitter, hence not as attractive to cucumber beetles as some varieties. Adapted to open field production and under row covers or poly tunnels.

We picked these out because the judges said they might be the best tasting cucumber on the planet.  They are!  We offer these to restaurants, and the proprietor love us for it.  We definitely love this cuke.
