Honeynut squash seeds produce a relatively new variety of squash that was specially bred for better flavor. The specialty butternut squash comes from Cornell University's Breeding Institute. Honeynut produces mini butternut squash on a semi-vining type plant. The 5" long fruit weigh from 1 to 1-1/2 lbs. and have a sweet and rich flavored deep orange flesh. The rind starts off a dark green, turns tan and then a rich burnt orange color at full maturity. Honeynut squash has compact vines, making it possible to grow several plants in smaller spaces. The plant also has intermediate resistance to powdery mildew.

We recommend planting honeynut squash seeds early, as the fruit takes longer to mature. Honeynut is best planted in loose, fertile soil with warmth and full sun.

The squash has excellent flavor and texture, making it a great addition to soups and stews. It also has enough sugar content for desserts. Honeynut has thinner skin compared to other squash, but it still stores well and lasts for two to three months.
