'Long Green Bush 4' has all the attributes of Green Trailing but with a bush habit for more limited space. This variety produces large green fruits with a paler green stripe and is highly productive.
Marrows can be cut before the first frost and stored in a frost free but cool area and used during the winter. However, unlike courgette the skin is tough and is either removed before cooking or just after. Raise and grow as courgettes.
