Squash Summer Baby Round Zucchini Heirloom
Cucurbita pepo

Days to maturity: 45

Discover this tasty little round zucchini, known by the French for generations as "Ronde de Nice." Especially suited for stuffing, or as individual serving soup bowls, but delicious in any way summer squash is used. The blossoms are scrumptious fried!

This packet plants 7 mounds.

Days to Emerge: 5 - 10

Seed Depth: 1/2"-1"

Seed Spacing: 2 - 3 seeds per mound

Mound Spacing: 3'

Thinning: When several leaves thin to 1 plant per mound

When to sow outside: RECOMMENDED. 2 to 4 weeks after average last frost and when soil temperatures have risen above 60° F.

When to start inside: Not recommended except in very short season climates, 2 to 4 weeks before average last frost. Sow in individual pulp pots that can be planted directly in the ground.

Harvesting: For optimum flavor and quality, harvest at 3" long for "baby" zucchini, and 6" - 8" for all other uses. If allowed to grow 10" - 12" or so, the flesh can be used for breads, but the tough seeds must be discarded.Artist: Donna Clement
