Winter Squash, Honey Boat Delicata
New for 2012 C. pepo. 90 days. Very sweet and reliable winter squash bred by Dr. James Baggett at Oregon State University. Sister variety to Sugar Loaf which is shorter and fatter. Honey Boat is long like a true delicata but with a copper skin instead of the typical yellow. Certainly the sweetest winter squash we have ever grown. We have found it to hold its sweetness longer into winter storage than regular delicatas. Many of the commercial sources of Honey Boat are crossed up or are selling Sugar Loaf with the wrong name. We have decided to clean up this variety and return it to its former glory. Every year our selection will get better and better.
