Costata Romanesco zucchini Cucurbita pepo
From - Leila Macbeth
Harvested - 2022
Annual. 
Huge, healthy plants, tasty, dense-fleshed fruit. The zucchini might still have the flower on and already be hefty-never fear they're just big zucchini, not marrows! These are not insanely productive like the green varieties, which is great.
