Originally from the Burpee Seed Company 1973, this brightly coloured zucchini is a great producer of delicious crisp fruit with a mild flavour. Grows into a compact bush style plant. Fruits are best around the 8″ length and will produce more if harvested frequently. The flower has become somewhat of a delicacy in high end restaurants.

Growing Directions

Sow seed directly outdoors 1″ deep in 12″ hills with 6 seeds per hill in full sun, when ground is warm and all chance of frost has past. Thin to 3 plants per hill. Harvest often for more fruits.
