The squash to grow for a lots of meat. Thick, very sweet and enormous. Our favorite winter squash now! Especially good for large families.

All the taste of a butter nut, but twice the size. Just one of these was enough for three dinners, after being cooked. This plant will be a fixture in my garden from now on.

First year for Argonaut. Walthams have always been good crop each year but this year we placed them in a different area of the garden and they all but died and produce small fruits. The argonaut have been very successful and large. They are about 4 weeks from harvest. I only have one concern, mine are still green in color and large but not one bit orange like the picture.
