Squash – Black Beauty

Cucurbita spp.

(Squash, Summer)

Variety: Black Beauty, Zucchini

60 Days to Mature

Territorial Seeds: A great improvement over the old Black Zucchini. The 3–4 foot open bushes let you see the fruit before it becomes giant sized. Best eaten when 6–8 inches long, the fruit is cylindrical, smooth, dark green, and straight. For a treat, dip blossoms in a beer batter and deep-fry.
