$3.90
Unit price perCucurbita pepo
Yellow Bush Scallop is a traditional button squash producing brilliant golden-yellow, disc-shaped fruits with deeply scalloped edges. The tender young fruits have a fine texture and mild, slightly sweet flavour and are best harvested while small.
The vigorous bush plants are productive and relatively compact compared with trailing squash. Regular picking encourages continued flowering and fruit production. Young squash can be steamed or sautéed whole, grilled, roasted, stuffed or sliced into salads and vegetable dishes.
Scalloped squash, also known as pattypan squash, are among the oldest cultivated forms of Cucurbita pepo, with similar scalloped forms grown in the Americas for centuries.
Approximately 15 seeds per packet.
