Round Zucchini Seeds – Heirloom Globe Summer Squash (10 Seeds)

Round Zucchini is a unique heirloom summer squash that produces globe-shaped fruits with tender, pale green to dark green skin and creamy white flesh. Unlike traditional elongated zucchini, these round fruits are perfect for stuffing, roasting, grilling, or slicing into salads. Their mild, slightly sweet flavor and firm texture make them a versatile addition to any kitchen garden.

This easy-to-grow summer squash is a favorite among home gardeners for its productivity and early harvest. The compact, bushy plants are well-suited for raised beds, containers, or small garden spaces. Whether you are an experienced gardener or just starting out, Round Zucchini offers a rewarding growing experience with a steady supply of fresh, delicious squash throughout the season.

Planting & Care

Sow Round Zucchini seeds directly in the garden after the last frost date, when soil temperatures have warmed to at least 60°F (15°C). Plant seeds 1 inch deep in hills or rows, spacing them 24–36 inches apart. For earlier harvests, start seeds indoors 3–4 weeks before the last frost and transplant carefully, as squash roots are sensitive to disturbance.

Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged, watering at the base of the plant to avoid wetting the foliage. Mulching helps retain moisture and suppress weeds. Harvest fruits when they are 3–4 inches in diameter for the best flavor and texture. Regular harvesting encourages continued production. Watch for common pests like squash bugs and cucumber beetles, and monitor for powdery mildew in humid conditions.
