Product Details

There is good reason this squash is called sweet. This wonderful, 10 to 15-pound, 1940s heirloom treasure may not be well known, but after you grow it, you'll be spreading the word With a fine-grained texture and delicious flavor, it is superb by itself, added to soups or roasts and even baked into a pie that rivals pumpkin pie Excellent for canning or freezing. Allow room for vigorous vines to 10 ft.
