    A fun alternative to butternut squash
    Produces narrow squash with cream/yellow coloured skin and dark green stripes. It looks great in the vegetable garden!

This is a compact variety, suitable for beds or large pots, and it doesn’t need space to climb/sprawl. You’ll receive a growing guide with your plug plants.

Growing winter squash from plug plants is easy – just plant in a bed in a sunny site and keep them well watered. You’ll need a bit of space for them to sprawl, or a sturdy trellis for them to climb. Full growing instructions come with the plug plants.
