Many different varieties of zucchini grown here this year. Started with NO ID green zucchini bought as seedlings.

Then bought seedlings of Elite. This zucchini looks just like your typical dark green store bought zucchini.


Cavilli is very light lime green, almost white.


Caserta is a recent one I am growing. Lovely looking light green with mottled darker green fruits.


And prettiest of all Green Tiger with the nice striped fruit.


I never grew zucchini before and this is my first year. This spring my only goal was to plant some seedlings and get fruit. But I have been learning as I am growing and soon realized that what I wanted was not just zucchini but pretty to look at zucchini. So that when I give zucchini to my friends and neighbors they should be impressed! Rolling on the floor laughing
