Growing Black Beauty Heirloom Zucchini Squash

‘Black Beauty’ is an award-winning heirloom zucchini and 1957 All-America Selections Winner prized for its dark glossy fruits, firm white flesh, and tremendous productivity. The deep green skin matures to nearly black, while semi-spineless, semi-upright plants maintain an open habit for easier picking.

Sow ‘Black Beauty’ directly in the garden about 1 inch deep and space plants about 4 feet apart. Grow in full sun. This heat-tolerant variety thrives throughout warm weather.

Ready to harvest in about 48 days, pick fruits under full size for the best eating quality or harvest them very young for gourmet baby zucchini.

Firm, flavorful, and versatile, ‘Black Beauty’ is excellent for fresh eating, grilling, sautéing, baking, everyday cooking, and freezing.

Good producer

This variety produces well. Nicely formed uniform size and shape. I only wish I could get them to grow without having squash bugs kill them off after producing 4 or 5 zucchini.

Excellent variety. The plants produced for several months, even into the early autumn, in western NY, near Lake Erie.
