Buy Scallopini seeds in NZ.

Grown and saved by little hands, these scallopini are known in our house as U.F.O.s!

These flying saucers make a great addition to summer bbqs and also a personal family favourite is to make chocolate ‘zuchinni’ cake with whatever squash we have to hand!

Bright yellow scalloped summer squash with tender nutty tasting flesh. Grows well over the summer months, the first fruit ripening in 50 days from sowing in late spring.
Good resistance to powdery mildew that can also be controlled by growing in rich humus with even moisture levels and good airflow around the plant.

Great for children’s gardens, NZ school gardens, home or community gardens.
Encourage little people to help sow seeds, care for the plant, treasure hunt to find the fruit under the leaves.
