New open pollinated! Mini butternut squash on a compact bush plant. The 12 cm (5 in) long fruit weigh from 1-1.5 lbs and have a very sweet and rich flavoured deep orange flesh. The rind starts off a dark green, turns tan and then a rich burnt orange colour at full maturity. Smaller butternut--simply cut in half and bake! Stores well

Planting Instructions
Squash plants are frost tender and must be planted when danger of frost is past. For earlier fruit, plant in 8 cm (3 in) jiffy pots or strips 3 to 4 weeks prior to intended date of transplanting to the garden. Plant the seed 4 cm (1 1/2 in) deep and keep the soil warm, 22 C (72 F). Space plants in the garden 1 m (3 ft) apart. Fertilize with 10-52-17 and liquid seaweed for strong healthy plants.
