Product Information
We do our best to ensure product descriptions, specifications, care information and other details are accurate and up to date. Information is provided as a general guide and may vary between batches, suppliers, individual plants or product revisions.

Stock availability
Website stock levels update live from our inventory system, but occasional discrepancies can occur due to in-store sales, damage or stock adjustments. This is more likely when only 1 or 2 units are showing as available.

Product images
Images are provided as a visual guide and may not show the exact individual item for sale. Plants can naturally vary in size, fullness, colour, shape and stage of growth, and images may show a mature specimen to demonstrate how a younger plant may develop.

Images are either owned by Kambarang Garden Centre, used under an appropriate licence or with permission, or created with AI assistance. AI imagery is used to improve the background of existing photos, and to provide representative images where a suitable real-world photo is difficult or impractical to obtain, particularly for mature plants. Special care is taken to preserve the genuine appearance, colour, form, foliage, flowers and growth habit as accurately as current AI image technology allows.

Plant sizing
Plant sizes refer to the pot size, not the exact size of the plant. For example:

  • 100 mm = 10 cm diameter pot
  • 140 mm = 14 cm diameter pot
  • 5 L = 5 litre pot

Smaller pot sizes generally indicate younger plants, although actual plant size can vary significantly between species, varieties and growth habits.

Description

Cucumis sativus 'Burpless,' commonly known as Burpless Cucumber, is a cultivar of cucumber originating from South Asia, specifically bred to be more easily digestible and low in bitterness. This evergreen annual plant thrives in Perth’s warm growing season and is best suited to outdoor garden beds or large pots with trellis support, as it grows into a vine that benefits from vertical space. It prefers a sunny position with at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily and thrives in rich, well-drained soil with organic matter added for optimal growth.

Burpless cucumbers can be sown in Early Spring (Djilba) to Late Spring (Kambarang) and harvested throughout Early Summer (Birak) when the fruits reach around 15–20 cm in length. Regular watering is essential, especially during warm months, but avoid overwatering to prevent rot. The cucumbers can be eaten fresh or added to salads, sandwiches, and pickles. Known for their crisp texture and mild, refreshing taste, Burpless cucumbers are a popular choice for those who may experience digestive issues with other varieties. This versatile vegetable brings a healthy, hydrating addition to any diet and is enjoyed for its culinary uses.
