| I am looking for the Paydon Family Squash or other similar squash or melons that are the right size for one or two people. Prefer squash and melons weighing 3 lbs or less, and ice box sized watermwelons. |

-pippin-squash.html 95d. This is probably the best tasting of all acorns; the bright yellow, small acorn-shaped fruit have a sweet flesh that's very flavorful! Uniquely colored fruit are great for fall decorations. An heirloom from the Gill Brothers Seed Company of Oregon. REVIEW:These squash tend to be about half the size of a standard acorn, but with more flavor and sweetness. They are rather prolific and do vine well. Their flesh is not very thick, so for most of them two squash would equal one serving for me. But they store well so far and have made great table decorations while waiting to get eaten so....Better than average for color, visual appeal and productivity, very good taste but just okay because they are too sparse of flesh to do much with. Would probably be great for little soup turrines. I grew them this year. They are cute little bright yellow corrugated squash. Have not opened any yet. When I do you are welcome to some seed if you desire. |
