Bush Delicata Winter Squash

Sweetest squash I have grown

I grew these for the first time in 2025. I am located in the Seattle area. The taste was fabulous. The size was comparable to other delicatas I have grown. I only got 3 from the single plant but it was a test grow to see if I liked it. I will grow way more in 2026. I also grow Sweet Meat and other winter squash.

Bush Delicata

This was my second seed packet of this variety from Territorial Seed Co. I have planted them for several summers. The seeds always germinate and, as the title says, grow in a bush form so they are not trailing all over my small garden. The squash themselves are delicious and as a winter squash they wait out in my basement without becoming soft before being roasted and eaten.

Hot summer here in Ga. Pretty dry as well . Doing fine with irrigation and decent fruit set considering the conditions.
