Ask any allotment veteran their idea of the best-flavoured winter squash & you can pretty much guarantee this one will come out top of their list. A nutty, honey-like depth & smooth, pudding-like flesh make it a superb choice for roasting. One of the most long-storing of all squashes. Steel blue skin & bright orange flesh with a sweet nutty flavour, & averaging 3-4kg (61/2-9lb) in weight. The storage potential is excellent; it can be over 3 months if kept in a frost-free area with good ventilation. Trailing growth habit.
