Custard Marrow White Flat

This variety is very popular in America where it tends to be eaten fresh. It is also the most popular early white-skinned squash. In addition to regular Squash uses, try them shortly after the fruits set, boiled and served like Asparagus. The plant has a bush form.

Sow the seeds in pots from April onwards at room temperature. Harden off before planting out when all frost has past. The unusual fruits store well.
