A round French heirloom zucchini from Provence, grown for generations. The succulent, tender flesh is at its peak while the fruits are still less than 7.5cm (3") in diameter, or grow the fruits on to be hollowed out and stuffed for an interesting summer side dish.
The flesh of this zucchini has such delicate skins that the fruits are prone to bruising, which is why it doesn't turn up in grocery stores. Ronde De Nice zucchini seeds, however, are perfect for the home vegetable garden. Try them steamed at just 2cm (1") diameter, or stuffed at 10cm (4").
Matures in 60 days. (Open-pollinated seeds)
Season Warm season
Exposure Full-sun
Timing
Direct sow or transplant in late May or early June when soil is warm. For transplants, start seeds indoors in late April or early May. Optimal soil temperature for germination: 25-35°C (68-95°F). Seeds should sprout in 7-14 days.
Starting
Sow seeds 2cm (1″) deep. Sow 3 seeds in each spot you want a plant to grow and thin to the strongest one. Aim to space zucchinis no less than 45-60cm (18-24″) apart in rows 90-120cm (36-48″) apart.
