Courgette 'Ambassador'

'Ambassador' is a popular and reliable courgette cultivar, known for its compact bushy habit and consistent production of straight, dark green, medium-sized fruits with excellent flavour and texture. This makes it an ideal choice for smaller gardens or containers. The plant typically grows to 60-90cm in height and spread. It is an H1C hardy annual, thriving in full sun and rich, well-drained soil in the UK. Plant after the last frost. Regular harvesting when the fruits are young (15-20cm) promotes continuous production throughout the summer. The large yellow flowers are also edible. An RHS AGM winner, praised for its reliability, productivity, and good disease resistance. Attracts pollinators.
