This vine produces small 3-4kg (7-9 lb) squashes that have orange flesh and attractive, bluish grey skins. Baby Blue Hubbard squash seeds have outstanding keeping ability. This is an attractive, flavourful variety for gardeners and commercial growers alike.
Tip: For the best storage, allow the fruits to ripen fully on the vine, but be sure to harvest prior to frost. Wipe each fruit down with a weak bleach solution to kill off any bacteria or mould spores, and be sure not to nick the tough skins. Store in a cool, dark place and enjoy Hubbard squash all winter long.
