RHS CUCUMBER Emilie F1

RHS Cucumber Emilie F1 is a high performing greenhouse cucumber variety bred to deliver consistently heavy crops of smooth, mid sized fruits with excellent flavour and texture. This reliable F1 hybrid produces almost entirely female flowers, which means higher yields and a more dependable harvest throughout the growing season.

Awarded the prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit, Emilie F1 has been recognised for its strong garden performance, productivity and resistance to common cucumber diseases. The fruits are straight, evenly sized and crisp, making them ideal for fresh salads, sandwiches and everyday kitchen use.

Best grown under cover in a greenhouse or polytunnel, this variety also performs well in large containers and grow bags, making it suitable for patios, smaller gardens and allotments alike. Plants benefit from training up supports to encourage straight fruit development and improve airflow.

Sow RHS Cucumber Emilie F1 indoors from February to May, allowing plants to establish in warm conditions before transplanting. Harvests follow from July through to October, rewarding careful growers with a long cropping period and excellent quality cucumbers.

As part of the RHS seed range produced by Mr Fothergills, this variety offers trusted performance and proven results for gardeners looking to grow productive, disease resistant cucumber plants at home.
