Winter Squash – Blue Kuri

If you’ve ever grown Crown Prince (which is a reasonably well known squash variety) then think of Blue Kuri as its smaller sibling. A similar grey-blue skin, deep orange flesh and good nutty qualities. It is a trailing variety and should produce several small squashes weighing around 1kg on each plant. One of its best traits is that it matures early, making it a particularly good option for anyone growing in northern areas of the country where summer might come to an end a little earlier than down here in Cornwall!
