This includes Mexico and the Middle East, all while linking up with the seed industry\u2019s greatest leaders to collaborate and expand their high-level breeding program.<\/p>\n<p>Many new squash varieties have been in the works, including dark green and round zucchini varieties, with the Isabella hybrid grey zucchini being their latest successful development\u2014and ready to be shared with the public.<br \/>\nWeStar may be late to the game developing its own highly competitive grey zucchini variety.
