This super compact squash plant is one of a kind in that it can easily be grown in a container. The lighter cream colored skin opens up to a bright orange flesh. It grows to about 6 to 7 inches long and weighs 4 to 8 ounces. The smaller version of the butternut squash makes for a good portion for one or two people. Each plant yields about 9 fruit each.
