Description

(45 Days) Beautiful, smooth, speckled grey-green Lebanese zucchini that is popular in gourmet dishes. The open, nearly spineless plant has an attractive appearance and is highly productive. 17 cm (7 in) long.

Planting Instructions

Zucchini plants are frost tender and must be planted when danger of frost is past. For earlier fruit, plant in 8 cm (3 in) jiffy pots or strips 3 to 4 weeks prior to intended date of transplanting to the garden. Plant the seed 4 cm (1 1/2 in) deep and keep the soil warm, 22 C (72 F). Space plants in the garden 1 m (3 ft) apart. Harvest when the fruit is 20 to 30 cm (8 to 12 in) in size. If left on the plant they reach 1 m (3 ft). Fertilize with 10-52-17 and liquid seaweed for strong healthy plants.
