Isn't acorn squash the epitome of a fall vegetable? These glossy ribbed beauties are so attractive, you may want to display them in a basket on your table for awhile before cutting them open for dinner! An All America Winner in 1974, "Table King" is still very popular decades later for its fabulous traits. The orange flesh has marvelous, rich flavor, and the fruit grows on very compact 4' vines. (A bonus for gardeners with small plots!) You can expect 5 - 8 squash to grow on each plant, but its best to prune to 5 per plant. This variety is also great for short season climates, maturing in just 80 days when most other winter squash take up to 100 days. Don't worry about growing too much -- mature harvested winter squash will store for months. This packet plants 6 hills or 18 plants after thinning.
