Jumbo Pink Banana Squash Seeds
OK, last one I am offering up for SASE. Send me an email for an address if you would like to try this (Or all three varieties I've recently posted).
Jumbo Pink Banana is a delicious, prolific and JUMBO heirloom. These were SO fun to grow! The flesh was so tasty that you can slice a chunk off and bake it to eat as a side dish (wonderful with a little butter and brown sugar on top!) As you can see from the cut slice next to my son, the flesh is thick and dense. Most of these got to be 30# and up. My little pitbull weighs 55# and you can see it is almost as large as he is. There were at least 4 of these monsters per vine!

- 9 years agoI got seeds last year. Due to very mild weather I got a very early start this year. Planted three plants. Here's the first one picked this weekend. Got about three more coming. I could share some seeds with you if you can wait until this one cures and we crack it open, prob in a couple weeks?

Update: so from the seeds I got from fresc1000 last year, from the three plants I grew this early spring, I got 11 of various sizes. 5 were over 20lb each, of which one I already cracked open and ate (the previous pictured one), and the rest are smaller.
The plants are pretty much done, succumbing to a combination of squash bugs, squash vine borers,and powdery mildew. But what a great harvest! Now I need to figure out what I am going to do with ALL THIS SQUASH!!!
It was an awesome spring for squash. I also have a bunch of acorn squashes, and spaghetti squash. My family is going to get sick of squash!
