I wonder if they are white because their translated name is Bride?? I see on the enclosed slip of paper that they do say white .

When I was searching through my stash I came across 2 large packets of Miniature White cuke seeds . I was going to chuck'em as they say 2011 on them, up for grabs if you want any. I have grown tomatoes from seeds older than this but I don't know about cukes..maybe I will give them a germination test too..doubtful but you never know.

I have just 8 of the 2016 Nevesta "bride" seeds but if I try 4 and get something you can have the other four if you wish.I will test them first though. I sent somone 2 lots of zuchinni seeds that are not available in North America from 2016 and they both germinated.

Isn't seed saving fun!!
