These started out great until the borer beetles decimated them here in zone 8b. Planting a second round now that the major push of the beetles is over.

Zone 8a recently changed to 8b. My second year growing this variety. These are the best tasty zucchini ever. They have such a smooth and nutty flavor, so yummy. I do have a hard time getting them to germinate but this is the 2nd pack I have bought because the flavor is worth the struggle. It also definitely could be a me problem or a heat problem. They do seem to be able to still produce if you bury the infected stem, after removing the bore. They will put roots down and continue to keep producing. They did seem to be a little but more immune to powdery mildew then somemof the other varieties I have grown.

Wow! This zucchini grew very quickly and we harvested a little sooner than the maturity date. The description is right - they have a wonderful nutty and savory taste. What I've harvested so far has been pretty good size, averaging 300g/10oz. Zucchini can be easy to miss, but the striped pattern helps for spotting them. This is a beautiful variety!
