Experience a unique twist on summer squash with Round di Nizza—compact, globe-shaped zucchini prized for its tender flesh and mild, sweet flavor.
Bring Italian Elegance to Your Garden!
Round di Nizza, known locally as Gol Tori, is an Italian heirloom zucchini variety that produces 8–10 cm diameter round fruits with smooth, dark-green skin. These globe squashes offer creamy, non-bitter flesh perfect for stuffing, grilling as “zucchini boats,” slicing into salads, or simmering in curries. The compact, bushy plants fit beautifully into small beds or containers.
Well adapted to Pakistan’s warm spring and early summer heat, Round di Nizza matures in 50–60 days, delivering continuous harvests of gourmet squash.
