Jarrahdale
Cucurbita maxima
100 days — Originally from Australia, 'Jarrahdale' is similar to 'Sweet Meat' winter squash. Its vines produce fruit that are wider than they are tall, deeply ribbed, and range in weight from ten to twelve pounds each, but can reach twenty. The rinds are hard and blue-grey in color with fine-grained, dry, sweet, nearly stringless flesh that is orange-yellow in color and excellent for baking or in pies. When properly harvested and cured, 'Jarrahdale' squash store well. Each packet contains four grams, which is approximately 18 to 20 seeds.




Planting Instructions:
Choose a location that has warm, well-drained and fertile soil. Work in plenty of organic matter and mulch to conserve moisture, as squash are heavy water consumers.
Sow directly in garden after threat of frost has passed. Seed will not germinate if soil is too cold. Sow one inch deep in hills or rows spaced 24 to 30 inches apart. You may also start seed indoors three to four weeks before transplanting.
