Can Zucchini really be round? Sure it can! Just ask the French who have been enjoying Ronde de Nice Zucchini for long enough for the variety to be classed as an heirloom. Although they're still edible when they're bigger, these fruits are best picked at about golfball size. Grill the fruits whole or slice them up, this variety is known for melt-in-the-mouth tenderness. Bigger fruits are perfect for stuffing and baking.

Growing Information

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.
