Submitted by Hugo from Milford, CT "I really liked this watermelon. Here in Connecticut, our watermelon growing season is not as long as in southern areas but we can still grow them. I bought a pack of "Million Bucks" hybrid and started them in pots in April. By June 1, I moved them into my garden and by the 3rd week in August I picked one that was close to 30lbs. The flavor was great!!!!!!" |

Submitted by LakeErieGarden from Lorain, OH "This is a very nice looking and super yielding plant even by zucchini's standard. In fact, as I write this in mid-September, it is still producing fruit and flowering in my garden while all my other green zuke plants have wilted out at least three weeks ago. I planted these in mid-May. I have three plants and all three are still going fairly strong four months after I planted them. As for the taste, I was pleasantly surprised, it really does have a nice zucchini flavor and not super seedy. Do pick before they get too big as Burpee suggests or" |

Submitted by LakeErieGarden from Lorain, OH "This is another winner. I can't say it is more productive than any other zucchini but this Zucchini did hold very good flavor when large. I had a couple get very big, well over 12 inches and real fat and they were indeed very mild yet. I might go with this zucchini from now on in my garden. As with all zucchini it was easy to grow and this fruit was splendidly rich green." |

Submitted by schwichty "I bought 3 of these plants this year and I can't believe the amount of flowers I have. They each started out with one stalk and they all have 3 stalks already. I can't wait to see what I get next year. These are just absolutely beautiful. The bumble bees just love them. I have one that is planted right outside my bedroom window and it is like looking out a bouquet everytime I go into the room. They definately need strong staking. I can't wait till I am able to divide and give to my friends." |

Submitted by Jean from Pittsburgh "I purchased a pack of seeds and they grew easily, and bloomed this season. They bloomed a lot and it is now mid-September, I see no end to the blooms yet. I am so happy that I finally moved them to the ground, at the entrance of our property, to greet all our guests. I highly recommend this plant if you want yellow color, many blooms, all throughout spring and summer." |

Submitted by Anonymous Reviewer from Nashville "My husband loves hot peppers and so I'm always looking for new varieties to try. This season I found this plant and ordered three plants (NOT seeds). I am very very impressed with this plant, have recommended it to friends, and will be ordering it again next year. All three plants grew prolifically and are covered with LOTS of peppers which turn a beautiful yellow upon maturing. I am a wimp when it comes to hot peppers, so they are a bit too hot for me, but my husband and son think they're great. I've begun stringing the excess peppers for drying, but it's too early to tell if they will dry as nicely as habanero and some other peppers." |

|
Submitted by bstnh1 from Southern New Hampshire "This bean is great - it is a heavy yielder, has great flavor and is totally stringless. It is not, however, as easy to harvest as the description would have you believe. These beans are very well attached to the plant and you cannot just yank them off. To avoid damaging the plant and immature beans, you must hold onto the plant near the bean's stem and then pull the bean off." |
