Squash Pink Banana (Cucurbita pepo)

Pink Banana Winter Squash is an American hertitage variety which has firm, sweet, yellow-orange flesh ideal for baking. It's skin turns pinkish-orange when mature and can have a trailing habit of up to 10ft.

Winter squashes are perhaps the most underrated garden vegetable. Easy to raise and grow, this vegetable is practically pest-free. The squashes themselves have a very high food value, second to only carrots for vitamin A. They have a unique sweet taste and a wonderful firm, floury texture. Try them in soups and stews, or roasted around a joint as they are primarily a savoury vegetable. Stored in a spare room they will keep for up to five months.
