thanks for looking BB,looks like pescos for one,they grow fine here,and a lovely taste,not seen them anywhere else,son usually gets 1 and dries out the seeds,they are a more compact plant,with sligtly darker green motley leaves,more like a courgette plant,he even got 2 last year and not 1 butternut,owing to the bad season,treat them as a butternut,sigpicAnother nutter ,wife,mother, nan and nanan,love my growing places,seed collection and sharing,also one of theseComment
