Courgette Atena Polka F1 is a type that functions well and is always there for you. Throughout the summer, it produces an abundance of silky, golden courgettes. This tough plant is great for gardeners who want a crop that is easy to grow and delivers them a lot of food over a long season.

Atena Polka F1 is a fantastic plant for kitchen gardens, allotments, and even big patio containers because it always makes soft, sweet fruits. When picked young, courgettes have a mellow, somewhat sweet flavour that goes well in salads, on the grill, in the oven, or in summer cuisine.
