What Makes Survival Garden Seeds Different - non-GMO heirloom seeds

Black Beauty Zucchini Seeds produce one of the most dependable and productive summer squash plants for home vegetable gardens. This well-known variety grows on compact plants that deliver generous harvests of glossy, dark green zucchini throughout the season. Harvested young at 6–8 inches long, Black Beauty zucchini offers tender texture and mild flavor that works well in a wide range of everyday recipes. Its consistent yields make it a favorite for gardeners who enjoy sharing fresh produce or preserving surplus harvests.

Tender Texture and Classic Zucchini Flavor:

  • Smooth, dark green to nearly black skin
  • Mild, tender flesh when harvested young
  • Excellent for sautéing, grilling, baking, slicing, and frying

Highly Productive Summer Squash:

  • Known for heavy, continuous yields
  • Compact growth habit fits well in small or large gardens
  • Produces throughout the summer with regular harvesting

Why Customers Love Black Beauty Zucchini Seeds:

  • Reliable and consistent performance
  • High yields from just a few plants
  • Versatile in everyday cooking and baking
  • Ideal size and shape for uniform harvests

How to Grow Black Beauty Zucchini:
Sow seeds directly outdoors after the danger of frost has passed, when soil has warmed. Plant in full sun with well-drained, fertile soil. Space plants adequately to support airflow and fruit production. Water regularly and harvest often to encourage continuous yields. Pick zucchini at 6–8 inches long for best texture and flavor.

Harvest & Use:
Harvest fruit frequently once plants begin producing. Use fresh zucchini in savory dishes, baked goods, or preserve by freezing or dehydrating excess harvests.
