Summer Squash Max’s Gold

OverviewPlantingConditions

Description

We love 'Max's Gold' zucchini because of its beautiful color outside, and flavorful, firm squash inside. Long, straight fruits have a small seed cavity, meaning there's more delicious squash to eat. It's ideal for grilling, snacking on fresh, or adding to salads. Harvest frequently so that plants continue to produce throughout the summer months.
