I planted a few this       spring and we just had the first one for dinner last night. Very good, the       best squash we've had so far. It has a texture like custard, unlike some       winter squash which are very        fibrous. Dark orange flesh and great flavor.               y.w.! :) glad you liked them. we also grow some kabocha like       squashes which have crossed with the buttercup, both hold up ok       to the squash bugs/borers. that's why we grow them.                     > We also planted Tokyo Blue, which we've never had before. Apparently they       have a blue squash festival in Japan when these ripen. I'll post a review when       we try some.               we like squash, so hope to hear it is a good one. :)               cheers, back to getting the tomatoes done we picked today...                      songbird              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
