Winter Vine. Butterneck Squash is a Canadian heirloom that is the close cousin to the butternut squash, with a slimmer neck and unique shape. It’s hard to believe this variety is nearly extinct, given its rich, creamy texture and sweet, nutty flavor. A favorite for roasting, mashing, or making into soups and pies.
Awesome producer and neat looking fruit! The abundant cucumber beetles seem to ignore the vines too!
I've not grown these yet, but I've yet to get something from MiGardener that didn't preform as expected.
Butterneck Squash
I love these butterneck squash seeds. They have great germination, and they are so easy to grow.
This came so highly recommended that I had to order it immediately! Thank you!
This is my first year growing straw flower. The germination rate is fantastic and you get so many seeds. Can't wait till they can moved outdoors and bloom in my purple flower bed.
Everything but the royal paste sprouted. Sometimes that happens. Will place another order for fall planting.
This variety was excellent for me for cooking. I needed to pick fewer leaves and chopping was a breeze. The spinich felt more succulent and thicker than the American (smaller spoon shaped leaves). I would use it for cooking and keep the smaller leaved varieties for raw salad eating. My weather was a tricky early on and off again spring and winter pattern, so I think that triggered early bolting, but even still. It was pretty hands off and worth it.

Haven’t planted yet. Looking forward to adding to salads! So happy MIgarden had these. Hard to find Microgreen seeds
