Spaghetti Winter Squash Seeds

Spaghetti Winter Squash Seeds grow a flavorful yellow winter squash that is unique among winter types: when cooked, the flesh falls away from the shell in tender, al dente strands like spaghetti. Savory and low in calories, it is delicious with a little butter and salt or as a gluten-free pasta substitute, and each plant can yield 5 to 7 squash.
