Squash

SKU: GJ8THSRIK6NG5K30

Starting at $3.60

A recent winner of the coveted AAS award, this new squash has a light green fruit with a beautifully mottled dark green look that catches the eye. And wait until you try the smooth flesh, and sweet mild taste you will really fall in love with. Harvest fruit at 6-8″ for best flavor. The compact plant produces fruit two weeks earlier than other squash in this class.
