Description
Tromboncino d'Albenga' is a traditional Italian climbing courgette variety with long, thick-ended fruit. If the plants are grown without a trellis or climbing frame, they will grow crawling along the ground and form snake-like looped fruits. However, the courgettes should not be allowed to grow too large - they taste best when are young.

der absolute Knaller
Verbreitet sich enorm. Egal ob am Zaun am Boden. Sie wächst überall und ist sehr ertragreich. Sehr genügsam was Wasser und Düngergaben angeht.
Habe noch niemand getroffen die einen Garten haben und diese Zucchini kennen.
Seit Jahren mein Favorit
Dieses Jahr nur noch die Lieblingszucchini weil:
1.Platzsparend durch rankenden Wuchs
2. Festes Fruchtfleisch
3. Lustige Fotos :D
4. Führt oft zu Gesprächen über Gemüseanbau :)
