in storage. Vigorous vines are easy to grow. 140 DAYS. This item ships at the proper planting time for your region in both spring and fall.

I picked some that weren't ripe (due to the 140-150 days maturitiy) and we have been eating them all winter. I still have one remaining that I picked in October and it is just about 100% orange now. No signs of spoilage and it has been 6 months! - Sunday, March 20, 2011 you won't be sorry Reviewed By: Mike M (Middletown , NY) Every year I would try something new in the garden, I tried this one a few years ago and it has earned a spot every year. Its sweeter than acorn, smoother than butter cup. I cut it into 1" cubes and roast them in the oven with carrots potatoes and parsnip.
I'll always grow this one. you have to try it to believe. I never thought a squash this big could be so good. Read More Reviews
