Zucchini - Petals Jade Numbat X Gold Rush

Last season, Petal crossed two types of Zucchini we had growing in the garden here, one was the yellow skin "Gold Rush", the other was a striped green skin called Jade Numbat. At the time Jade Numbat was an F6 grow out, from a cross by Ray South aka Raymondo.

This season we are growing both Gold Rush and the "Petals Cross" and both have got off to a good start, growth wise. At least one characteristic of the Jade Numbat is noticeable on the cross, the grey leaf mottle.

Taste will probably improve with age, so what we've got so far can only get better.
