DescriptionDetailsSow & GrowGrow InPlanting CalendarDelivery

This British-bred variety produces top quality, well-shaped fruits suitable for exhibition work and ideal for the kitchen. It has the advantage of setting its fruits early to make the most of what sun we receive, ensuring the flesh is sweet and tasty. Each plant can produce up to three squashes, each up to 3kg, and with such a small seed cavity there is little waste.
