If pickles are on your list, Boston National produces crisp, smooth-skinned cucumbers around 6 inches long. This heirloom is a productive variety, giving you cucumbers to work into a pickling plan.

They are also useful for snacking and summer salads. Grow the vines on a trellis if you want to save space in the garden.
