Delicata Winter Squash Seeds produce a time-tested heirloom variety first introduced in 1894 and still valued for its sweet flavor, manageable size, and reliable storage qualities. Delicata squash develops oblong fruits with hard yellow skin accented by green stripes, protecting the rich orange flesh inside.

How to Grow Delicata Winter Squash:

Provide adequate spacing for vines and water consistently throughout the growing season. Allow fruits to fully mature on the vine for best flavor and storage potential.

Harvest & Use:
Harvest when the rind is firm and deeply colored. Cure briefly, then store in a cool, dry place. Delicata squash can be roasted whole or sliced, baked, frozen, or canned for long-term use.
