This rare heirloom is a true treasure! This squash is unique with its banana shape, and pink skin with green striations that almost look like they were brushed on with watercolors. Originally bred by members of the Cherokee Nation in the early 1800's it can get up to 15 lbs. Flavor is somewhat pumpkin-like but extremely sweet. Can store up to 6 months, with flavor getting sweeter in storage. This rare heirloom is a true treasure. The Candy roaster was originally grown by the Cherokee Indians and can get up to 15 lbs and can grow the size of your arm.\u003cbr\u003eThe flavor has been said to destroy any prejudices some folks may have about not appreciating the \"squash flavor\" or texture. The flavor is somewhat pumpkin-like but extremely sweet. The Candy roaster can last at least 6 months, and the sugars will concentrate over time.\u003cbr\u003eWhen roasted, this squash caramelizes extremely well due to its natural content. If you roast it brushed with oil or butter, the sugars in the flesh will actually form a candy-like crust. Think of it as a creme brulee in squash form. If blended with butter or dairy, it forms a sweet silky smooth texture. There aren't enough great things to say about this squash. It's unique, sweet, and has earned its name.\u003cbr\u003eFruits can get up to 18\" long and 6\" wide. You can sow from seed or start early and transplant, they will need full sun.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e10+ SEEDS\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSee more of our squash, pumpkins, and gourds here...\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.etsy.com\/your\/shops\/me\/tools\/listings\/section:40920395?ref=seller-platform-mcnav\" target=\"_blank\" tabindex=\"-1\"\u003ehttps:\/\/www.etsy.com\/your\/shops\/me\/tools\/listings\/section:40920395?ref=seller-platform-mcnav\u003c\/a\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSee the rest of the seeds in our store here...\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.etsy.com\/shop\/MountainRiverSeed\" target=\"_blank\" tabindex=\"-1\"\u003ehttps:\/\/www.etsy.com\/shop\/MountainRiverSeed\u003c\/a\u003e   \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOur garden seeds are hand-selected and rigorously tested to ensure you receive only the highest quality seeds.
