Grow a garden filled with Waltham Butternut Squash, from freshly harvested Cucurbita pepo seeds. Waltham Butternut is an heirloom variety of Winter Squash that produces 10 to 12 inch, oblong fruits. The outer skin is a creamy yellow and it's inner flesh is golden yellow / orange. The inner flesh of Waltham Butternut is extremely sweet and stringless, making it one of the best varieties to bake with. The fruits themselves weigh in at roughly 4 to 6 pounds each. The plants will reach a mature height of 12 to 24 inches tall, and will vine outwards, taking up roughly 6 feet of garden space. Harvest your Waltham Butternut Squash in about 95 days. Squash plants, like pumpkins, are grown as annual plants. Annuals will grow quickly, producing vines, leaves and fruits through the warm months of summer. After harvesting the Squash from it's vines, the plants will wilt soon after, with the first killing frost. Squash plants can be regrown the following season if you manage to save some of the seeds within the Squash itself.
