| This squash did not do well in our hot, dry climate, even though they were planted early. Plants grew O.K., but were not very productive. Fruits were pretty, but had thin flesh with very sub-standard texture and flavor.
Winter squash in the butternut family (C. moschata) are generally better choices for us. |
