Squash, Winter F1 'Orange Magic' is even smaller than the previous Squash, Winter 'Blue Magic', weighing in at only 2-3 pounds per fruit. Orange hubbard has almost a nutty flavor and 'Orange Magic' retains that nuttiness and sweetness in a small package.

Along with the manageable fruit size of 'Orange Magic', the plant is a semi-bush. It's not suitable for containers, but a corner of the vegetable garden would do nicely. (Harvestin 85 days.)

Seeds of Squash, Winter F1 'Orange Magic' are currently available from Gurney's Seeds. Here's more about growing winter squash.
