Windermoor Wonder Cucumber (New) 



316 Windermoor Wonder Cucumber (New) 



AN IMPROVED STRAIN OF OUR OLD PERFECTION HOTHOUSE. WE OFFER WINDERMOOR WONDER AS THE VERY 



HIGHEST TYPE OF GREENHOUSE FORCING CUCUMBER 



This Cucumber originated from a cross between Telegraph, an English forcing variety, and Davis Perfect. It attains about the 

 size of Davis or a little longer, and as we are breeding it, is symmetrical, having full well-formed ends with the tip end having rather 

 a short cone appearance. The cut shows what I attempt to describe in this respect. The outstanding feature of the Cucumber is the 

 color, which is an intense green to the very tip. We find that the past season this Cucumber has yielded about one-half more than 

 Davis Perfect under the same area of glass. This Cucumber will outsell all others on account of its beautiful color, which it holds well, 

 always looking fresh. The seed-cavity is small, making it an unexcelled Cucumber for slicing, also making it a rather shy seeder. 

 These Cucumbers may be grown out-of-doors early and will pass for the finest greenhouse stock, as they hold their color in the hottest 

 sun when others do not. 



At the Chicago convention of the Vegetable-Growers' Association of America, many growers stopped and inquired where they 

 could procure seed of Cucumbers like these. It has been worked on now for five years, this being the fifth, and while it is well fixed, 

 yet we do not claim that no further improvements can be made in bringing greater uniformity. The stocks showed good uniformity 

 the past season and, although some variation may be expected, it seems to be as well fixed as Davis or other greenhouse varieties.
