Botanical Interests 3163 Vegetable Seed, Squash, Cucurbita Maxima, 1.5 g Pack
Once you try these teardrop-shaped 3 to 4 lb fruits, they'll become an essential part of your fall and winter cooking. Kuri is Japanese for chestnut, a tribute to its nutty flavor. Also known as orange Hokkaido, its smooth consistency and deep color make it a favorite for any traditional squash or pumpkin dish, although it's terrific simply sliced, steamed or baked. Compact 4 to 6 ft vines produce well even in cool or short-season climates.
