Ornamental Squash Triamble
Product Description
Ornamental Squash ‘Triamble’
Cucurbita maxima
This seed is currently sold out for 2019. We had hoped to stock this variety in early 2019, however, our supplier was unable to fulfill our order. Regrettably, we will not have any inventory of this variety this year.
My favorite squash variety, this stunning shamrock-shaped treasure is an exquisite shade of glowing blue-green. Not only are the fruit beautifully colored, nicely sized, and uniquely shaped, but after harvest they generally last a year or more on display. I’ve even had a few make it past 2 years! Seldom used in recipes, ‘Triamble’ is unmatched as an ornamental squash.

How to Grow:
Squash dislike having their roots disturbed and do best when direct sown. Plant seeds directly into the garden after all danger of frost has passed.
Harvesting/Vase Life:
Harvest when fruit is fully mature and the stem attaching it to the vine begins to turn brown. Cut the stems with a knife or pruning shears rather than pulling fruits off the vine. Stems should be cut to 3-4 inches. If not used right away, cure for storage by setting in a warm, dry location for 1-2 weeks.
