Squash - Galeux d'Eysines (2.6" pot)
Winter Squash. This French heirloom is simply stunning! Flattened, round 10-15 lb fruit has a gorgeous, salmon/peach colour and is covered with large warts. Those warts lead to one of their most unique characteristics: scratch a name into the skin when they’re young and the warts will fill in the name as they grow. An absolute delight for the kids and the kids-at-heart! But these squash aren’t just beautiful, they’re also delicious, with deep orange flesh that is rich, luscious and flavourful. It is delectable in pies, stews and soups, with a smoothness not found in any other pumpkin variety. Plants are easy to grow; Fertilize weekly and water regularly. Once cured, squash will store for up to 6 months. Harvest when mature colour appears and stem begins to turn brown.
Harvest: 95-100 days
Height: vines of 8-10’
Plant Spacing: 6-8’
