10 Seeds
Black Beauty is a classic and reliable zucchini variety, producing dark green, glossy fruits with tender flesh and excellent flavour. Highly productive and quick to mature, it provides a steady harvest over many weeks. Harvest young for the best taste and texture, or allow fruits to grow larger for stuffing or baking. Grown using strictly organic methods, these seeds are certified organic for your peace of mind.
How to Grow
Sow seeds directly into the garden in spring and summer, once the soil has warmed. Plant seeds 2 cm deep in small mounds or hills, spacing each hill about 90 cm apart. Sow 2–3 seeds per mound and thin to the strongest seedling once established. Keep plants well-watered at the base and avoid wetting the foliage to reduce the risk of mildew. Pick zucchinis regularly when they are 15–20 cm long to encourage continuous cropping.

Soil Type
Fertile, well-drained soil enriched with compost or organic matter. Prefers a sunny position.
