Specialty Cucumbers include heirloom cucumber varieties like âLemonâ cucumbers and 'Sweet Armenian' cucumbers, as well as greenhouse cucumbers that require no pollination to set fruit. Container Cucumbers are bred for compact vines, and are better for deck plantings and small space gardens.weet Armenian cucumbers have a mild cucumber flavor, like a melon without the sweetness. They need no peeling, and their ribbed shape makes interesting cross-sections when sliced. âLemon Cucumbersâ (65 days, heirloom, open pollinated) are small, round, yellow cucumbers you often find in farmers markets.
These types of cucumbers include cornichon, dill, and gherkin. Slicing cucumbers, on the other hand, include varieties such as the seedless English (or hothouse), the lemon, and the common green market cucumber. Some cucumbers contain seeds while others do not.
