Unit price perCucurbita pepo
Table Queen is a classic heirloom acorn squash introduced in the 1930s and prized for its heavy yields and excellent eating quality. The compact, acorn-shaped fruits grow to around 14 cm across with a dark green rind enclosing thick, dry orange flesh. Rich, sweet and nutty in flavour, they are ideal for baking, roasting, stuffing or using anywhere pumpkin is called for. Allow fruits to fully mature on the vine to develop their best flavour and storage qualities.
Approximately 7–9 seeds per gram
Approximately 17 seeds per packet
When to Plant (Australia)
Tropics: April to August (dry season)
Subtropics: September to January
Mild climates: September to December
Cold climates: October to December
Planting / Sowing
Direct sow seed 20–30 mm deep into fertile, well-drained soil in a sunny position after the danger of frost has passed. Space plants 1–1.5 metres apart, allowing plenty of room for the vines to spread. Keep the soil consistently moist during establishment and fruit development. Harvest mature fruits after approximately 80–85 days, once the rind is hard and the stems begin to dry. Cure harvested squash in a warm, dry place before storing.
Due to quarantine restrictions, TAS has an 800g limit per each seed variety and WA has a 10,000 seeds limit per variety.

Flower seeds: As fellow gardening enthusiasts we share the love for planting and nurturing our own flowers in addition to our veggie gardens. Our carefully selected range of flower seeds, available for convenient online purchase, holds a special place in our hearts. Like the endangered vegetables we've championed, these flower varieties face the risk of vanishing forever. Some of these older strains are incredibly rare, and it's a source of immense pride for us to offer and deliver these precious flower seeds Australia-wide.
