This afternoon I have put my last three Butternut Squash seeds into 3″ pots. I do have some saved seeds to use but these are the last of the true bought ones. As it is an F1 hybrid the saved seeds may not come true but I shall try sowing some directly into the soil.
A superb variety of compact Butternut Squash. Early to ripen, and with a rich sweet orange flesh, Avalon is perfect for baking and roasting. The fruits will also store well, for up to 6 months. Sow April to May. Prefers well drained, moist, rich soil in full sun. Also grows well in cooler climates. Harvest August onwards. Cut and store before frosts. info from eSeeds.com
