Benning's Green Tint Summer Squash

Good summer squash

Strong plants, prolific producer. Nice saucer sized squash, some get thicker, but pick them young to avoid the seeds. Early season fruit may need to be hand pollinated, as many of them will fall off otherwise. Cook them like any other summer squash- good sauteed in a pan with onions and garlic. Will sprawl like other summer varieties, so stake them up and trim lower leaves to make your gardening easier. Will definitely grow again (... just less plants at once. Four stars only because I am tired of eating squash, and it's only June...)

Bennings Green Tint

After years of trying other patty pan type squash, I discovered Benning's Green Tint and it became the ONLY patty pan squash I grow!

good germination

Plants are growing well. I got them started a few weeks later than my other squash, but they are catching up well and starting to flower here in early July north of Seattle.
