Gourd Seeds - Cucuzzi (Italian Edible)

Long, tender edible gourds with excellent mild flavor and vigorous production

Description

Cucuzzi (Italian Edible) Gourd Seeds offer a vigorous, fast-growing plant that produces long, pale green gourds traditionally harvested young for peak flavor and texture. The vines climb readily on trellises, creating a lush canopy and a steady yield through the warm season.

The gourds have a mild, slightly sweet flavor similar to tender summer squash, making them a versatile choice for soups, sautés, stews, frying, or grilling. Their smooth, consistent flesh cooks evenly and takes on seasonings well, fitting easily into both traditional Italian dishes and modern kitchen creations.

Adaptable and resilient, Cucuzzi thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, rewarding gardeners with abundant production and an attractive vertical presence in the garden. This heirloom remains a favorite for both its productivity and culinary value.
