This is Carol Deppe’s strain, selected over many years for the best flavor, a small seed cavity, and the ability to germinate in cold mud. It’s very vigorous – give it room – and each plant produces 3 or 4 fruits that can weigh in at over 20 lbs. One of the longest-storing winter squashes, at least 6 months.
