About this variety
A vigorous and prolific courgette producing dark green, glossy fruits over a long period. A classic dark-green summer squash with creamy white flesh. Best picked young when no longer than 25cm. The plants have an open growth habit which makes it easy to pick the fruit and they won't stop coming! Try battering and frying the male courgette flowers for a gourmet addition to a summer meal.
