description
Organic 'Benning's' pattypan squash is a charming heirloom summer squash, recognizable by its flattened, scalloped shape that resembles a small vegetable saucer resting in the heart of the garden. Its very pale skin, almost ivory to light green depending on the harvest stage, gives it a particular elegance that immediately catches the eye among the dense summer foliage. In the garden, this variety proves to be generous and fast-growing, producing an abundance of young, tender fruits with a fine texture, perfect for fresh and light cuisine. Its large, bright yellow flowers attract numerous pollinators and actively contribute to the life of a rich and balanced garden ecosystem. Grown in warm, fertile, well-drained soil, it grows vigorously and quickly rewards the gardener with a regular and gratifying harvest. Picked young, the fruit is delicate, sweet, and flavorful; left a little longer, it gains presence and becomes superb for stuffing or roasting. Its original silhouette also adds an ornamental touch to harvests, making it a variety as beautiful to admire as it is pleasant to cook. This organic squash is ideal for gardeners looking for an abundant, decorative, and easy-to-integrate crop in a gourmet garden.
