I always plant zucchini in my garden. I like them for their ease of cultivation and delicious fruits, from which you can cook anything. I used to plant varieties with large fruits. This year I tried to plant zucchini. They really liked me. Compact, not very sprawling bushes allowed me to plant more plants on one bed than before. Yields are higher than conventional varieties. I was especially pleased that small fruits fit perfectly in a jar during canning.

I love growing zucchini in my backyard. Their care is minimal, and the harvest is always good. In terms of taste, I like such zucchini even more than ordinary, classic varieties. The size of the fruit in such varieties is small, but their number is amazing. On one bush, from 4 to 7 ovaries can grow simultaneously. The skin of a mature fruit is thin, which cannot be said about a larger zucchini. The pulp is juicy, crispy. There are practically no seeds inside the fruit. For frying and canning, zucchini is just perfect.
