Sowing Time February-April or June-July Flower / Fruit from May-September or April-May following year
Prolific cropper British bred, this attractive ‘tennis ball’ size, round, green striped courgette produces abundant crops of sweetly flavoured courgettes on compact, spine-free plants which can be container or soil grown. Don’t worry if some get too large, Piccolo makes a super ‘mini-marrow!’ Culture: Plant 60cm (2') apart. For maximum production of courgettes it is essential that all fruits of a culinary size are removed three times a week whether required or not. Sow late March-mid May, either in 7cm (3”) pots indoors for early sowings or direct outdoors for later crops. Harvest July-September. HEALTH BENEFIT: High in vitamins A, C and E. CULINARY HINT: Do not remove skins, just slice and grill, stir-fry, boil lightly, or use raw in salads. Try serving with chopped mint and balsamic vinegar.
TOBY'S TIP: Choose the variety for your conditions. I like Partenon as it is a parthenocarpic variety. If mildew is a problem try Tosca which on our trials we have found has good resistance to this fungal disease.
