Table Queen

A new dark green fluted ‘acorn’ squash perfect for cutting in half & baking without peeling. This is a normal vine squash, making several dark green fruit on each branch. Originally an heirloom variety bred by Native American Arikara, it was commercially introduced by the Iowa Seed Company in their 1913 catalogue. Now very rare, but preserved by our friends over at the AP Whaley Seed Co.
