795 HARRIS’ IMPROVED COCOZELLE. (NEW.) Fine Flavored 
“Vegetable Marrow’’ 
Squash. These squash are a delightful surprise to those who have never had them. 
They have a distinct, delicate, almost meaty taste that is much more delicious 
than any other summer squash. To be at their best, they should be picked when 
young, not over 10 to 12 inches long and 2 inches in diameter. At this stage, they 
are most tasty and have a wonderful flavor, especially if sliced thinly and fried in 
batter or deep fat. 
The vines are easily grown, compact and bushy in growth so they do not take up 
much space. The fruits are very attractive—long, straight and slender, with a 
dark green base color and stripes of lighter green. Our strain has been developed 
and grown exclusively by us and is much superior to all other strains.
