Very deep green-black fruits are smooth-skinned, glossy with exceptionally tender flesh with an actual delicious flavor.High yield, beautiful skin, “High” in levels of Lutein (vitamin) an antioxidant. This is a great plant for containers or space savers for small gardens as it is small.Some consider this to be the prettiest zucchini of all. It is also easy to pick the small zucchini as the plant has few stickers and is open in order to make it easy to see the zucchinis that need to be picked, rather than having to search around and missing some, that then become the size of submarines.
This growth habit also makes it easier for you to control the germination of the flowers. You will be able to see if your plant produces more female than male flowers, and you can then harvest the male flowers and store them in a vase of water in the refrigerator for up to two days. Use the saved flowers to pollinate the female blossoms just like a fuzzy bumble bee would, only use a small brush or Q-Tip. One male flower will pollinate up to three female flowers.This is fun to do.
