White Acorn has
a light white to whitish yellow skin and is mild in flavor and has
moist texture and is a smaller squash great for a meal for two,
Golden Hubbard is a golden orange color Fall squash with somewhat
dry texture that reaches huge sizes (my biggest one this year weighed
in at 15 pounds), my personal favorite, very sweet, fabulous stuffed
with butter, raisins, and brown sugar or your favorite stuffing
but be sure your big gathering of family is there to all enjoy it).
Buttercup is dark green skinned with dry, very sweet inside and
medium sized Fall squash, but really I think you will find it hard
to pick decide which is your favorite and I am sure you will like
all of them, so just plant in hills & few inches apart 4 to
6 per hill and 3 feet between hills for your indulgence..Oh, and
these keep well over Winter in a cool dark, and dry environment.
