Description

Lake Valley- Squash, Cucuzzi

Whimsical snake-shaped fruits are botanically gourds but are eaten like squash. Let vigorous vines grow over a trellis or arbor so the fruit can hang straight. If grown at ground level, fruit may curl into interesting shapes. Wonderful grilled, baked, or used as fall decoration.
