Ornamental cucumbers are striking, decorative fruits of fast-growing climbing plants from the cucumber family, valued for their unusual shapes, colours, patterns and sizes. The fruits can be round, elongated, ribbed, spiny or irregularly shaped and change colour as they ripen, from green to yellow, orange, white or other striking shades. The plants grow best in a warm, sunny and sheltered position and readily climb along a pergola, fence, trellis or climbing frame. Thanks to their vigorous growth, they are suitable for the vegetable garden, greenhouse and ornamental garden and can also provide a temporary green screen. The fruits are particularly suitable for autumn and winter decorations, flower arrangements, table displays and other creative applications. The young fruits of some varieties can also be used in cooking, although edibility and flavour vary depending on the variety. With their wide range of shapes, colours and uses, ornamental cucumbers are a versatile and decorative addition to any garden.
