This is the king of the zucchinis. Excellent taste. Just like any zucchini, it should be picked when they are tender, not too small, not too big. Real zucchini aroma. It produces a lot. One of my all time favorites, I gotta have every year. And I buy the seeds from this website, because I don't think that there is any seed company in US gives these many seeds as much as Franchi gives. I use until seeds are over for years (I start as 4 sets, 2 seeds for each set). they are still fresh and germinate. I discovered this company some years ago and I feel very lucky that I have an opportunity to access these authentic delicious vegetables from Italy. thank you

Wonderful plant, very heavy producer. Good taste and tender for small and medium fruits. I grew them large to make mountains of zucchini bread. Will always grow some of this one. GREAT variety!

If Fellini made movies about vegetables, this would be his star. Easy to grow, prolific, beautiful striations, tender and versatile. We enjoy them raw in salads, stuffed or sautéed.

Few years ago, when I discovered this website, I read every single word, and made a list of vegetables and varieties I wanted to try. It's hard to make decision, especially when they are original Italian and knowing that they gotta be great, really really great. So, I decided to go with the word "excellent" if I saw it in description I ordered. This was one of them. When they say excellent, they know what they are talking about! Full aroma, flavor, texture, even so beautiful, I show off with them to put top of my kitchen counter. When I share with neighbors and friends, they are amazed, too. This is on my all time favorite list, so every year in my garden. I cooked in many ways, they handle every recipe great. I believe that there is no better zucchini, maybe in the same level in the world.
