Giant Argonaut Butternut Hybrid Squash

#03603
  • 25 seeds
  • $4.25
The largest hybrid we've ever grown. These extra-meaty, extra-long butternuts weigh 15 to 25 lbs., and one will feed a small army. Gold skin color, smooth flesh texture and high sugars (as high as 13%) set this apart. Resistant to many insects and diseases. Has good keeping qualities and once cut, does not break down as quickly as others. Flesh is orange with wonderful flavor. Vigorous, productive vines. Very small seed cavity, mostly meat.
