ZUCCHINI – Black Beauty

(10 seeds)

$4.35

Rated 5.00 out of 5 based on 3 customer ratings

Creamy textured white flesh and tender dark green skins.

Your friends and family will think you’re a master gardener when they taste your fresh, home-grown zucchini – but they’re really easy to grow, and ‘Black Beauty’ has been a favourite since the 1920’s. Deep green skins and tender flesh make it a winner when steamed, lightly baked or added to stir-fries. Pick them while they’re tender and enjoy!

How to Sow

Sow your seeds directly where they are to grow after frosts as the soil begins to warm or start them in pots indoors for an earlier crop.

How to Harvest

Although you can let them get really big, zucchinis are at their best when they’re 10-15cm long – and you’ll get more fruits if you pick them then. Cut the stems above the fruit if you want them to last for a while.
