This classic Italian striped summer squash has large bush plants that are non-vining and can grow to 24 in. tall. The zucchini itself is decorated with dark and light green stripes and is tender and flavorful. Excellent for slicing, frying and steaming.
When and Where to Plant: Select a sunny location and plant in late spring after soil warms.
Care: Soil should be cultivated, enriched with vegetable food and organic matter, firmed over the seed, and kept moist. Keep soil moist and feed monthly. Don't worry when first blossoms fail to set fruit.
Harvesting: Pick continuously when fruit is 7 in./18 cm. long and 1-1/2 in./4 cm. thick for best flavor and to extend the plant's growing season.
