Squash Winter Acorn Table King Organic - 2g (~21 Seeds)
Nothing beats the rich, sweet flavor of baked winter squash on a chilly, autumn day. 'Table King' is great for short seasons or late spring planting; it is early maturing for a winter squash. Compact, 4' vines are great for small gardens or even large containers, and they are so easy to grow from seed! A 1974 All-America Selections winner.
