Variety description

10 August 2026

The term is used to denote a variety type intended for harvesting in short-summer conditions. The plants are often described as compact or semi-bush, which distinguishes them from traditional long-vined butternut squash.

The fruits have a mass of 1 to 2.5 kg, a pear-shaped or cylindrical form, and light beige skin. The flesh is dense, bright orange in color, and possesses a sweet taste with nutty notes. Varieties of this type are characterized by good keeping quality and are suitable for baking, soups, and making purées.
