About

Very productive courgette producing dark and light green stripy fruit over a long period. We have grown this traditional Italian variety of courgette for many years and it has become a staple part of our summer diets. It is a prolific producer of good looking and great tasting fruits. It has a bush-type growth habit making it suitable for smaller plots or even container growing. (Approximate seed count - 20)
