The ideal courgette for containers just the job where space is limited, but you still want to grow top-quality, dark green fruits. The plants are naturally compact growers and, because they are spine-free, picking is easier. Midnight F1 does equally well in open ground, if preferred.

Plant out after frost has passed, keep well watered in dry spells and you will soon be cutting masses of delicious, young courgettes. Most are best picked when about 15cm/6in long.
