Summer Squash:

Black Beauty Zucchini
This is an AAS selection. A very nice, deep green Zuc that I grow each year. Tons of delicious fruit!

A terrific alternative to the green form. I always grow this. A bush type.

Dixie Hybrid
Another hybrid with improved production. Crookneck type.

Early Prolific Straight Neck
You southerners all know this one.

Early White Bush Scallop
One of the oldest varieties of squash grown. Cool looking flying saucers in the garden. Prepare same as Crookneck types.

Pic-n-Pic hybrid.
Essentially this a hybrid form of the common Crookneck. Higher, more reliable production. Color is a bit more refined too.

Yellow Summer Crookneck
A perennial favorite in Texas and Louisiana gardens.

Cucumber:

Burpless Beauty
High yields of sweet deep green fruit. Very small seed cavity.

Cross Country Hybrid
Outstanding hybrid with lots of vigor that will produce tons of delicious, smallish cukes that are wonderful for salads. Can double as a pickler.

Early Spring Burpless Hybrid
Fast production combined with excellent fruit quality make this one a winner. Skin is super thin and if picked fairly young, don't even bother to peel them.

Marketmore 76
Been around since forever! Very heavy classic Cuke with great disease resistance Can be used as a pickler too when picked at a smaller size.

Pick A Bushel
A great one for those of you with space constraints or grow in containers. AAS winner that will produce lots of little tasty sweet, crisp fruit. Vines only grow to about 24 inches.

Pickle Bush
A small bush type cucumber that will save a lot of space. 4-5 inch fruits are great for pickling

Salad Slicer
A semi-bush type that produces large bright green fruit with excellent quality.

SMR 58
A very good, quite disease resistant variety that will bear over a long period. Both a slicer and pickler- SMR 58 is truly all-purpose.

Space Master
I have grown this one for about 30 years. Big fruit, about 8 inches on a small, compact plant. Keeps your garden tidy without sacrificing quality or size.

Tasty Green Hybrid
Long, slim fruit that are mild and crisp. Hybid vigor.

Melons:

Charleston Grey Watermelon
The big-ass one.

Crenshaw Cantaloupe
Kinda like a giant oval cantaloupe! Super sweet, salmon colored flesh will feed the family. When well grown, 10 pounders are not rare.

Hearts of Gold Cantaloupe
A true antique cantaloupe, this old-timer still performs. 3lbs is average along with sweet, salmon/orange flesh that is delicious.

Jubilee Watermelon
The other big-ass one. Light green with distinct stripes.

Sierra Gold Cantaloupe
A sweet and juicy cantaloupe, its golden flesh is vitamin packed, as are all cantaloupes.

Sugar Baby Watermelon
This is a classically sweet watermelon great for picnics. Fruit is 7 to 8 in across.

Other Vegetables:

Baby Bubba Hybrid Okra (3.5" pot)
This is a terrific variety for container growing! You don't see that often. Full-sized pods on dwarf plants! Very cool.

Okra Clemson Spineless (6pk)
Probably the most widely grow variety around here.

First Prize Hybrid Pumpkin
Eat 'em or carve 'em. People forget Pumpkin is something way more than a Jack O'Lantern. Lenny made me Pumpkin soup some years ago and it was an epiphany! Takes about 130 days to harvest. Lay the water and fertilizer to them and impress the kids!

Bright Lights Swiss Chard
A wonderful salad addition that grows well in the summer. Stunning colored stalks. If you haven't ever tried growing Chard, you ought to give it a try.
