Love it!

This is the best zucchini we have ever grown. We were able to harvest small squash all season long. Right up to frost in October. I would recommend this squash!

Not disease resistant

The seeds germinated well and the plant was doing great. They were beautiful plants, actually, and I was able to harvest some zucchinis, but then squash stem borer got all of my plants. I grew Black Beauty and Baby Boom varieties in the past and never had problems. I guess I should stick with those. Just thought I'd try something else for a change. I will say the zucchinis I did harvest were dark green and tasted very good.
