Terrific holding ability!

Delicious yellow flesh is just enough for one or two people -- no need to waste half of every fruit!
80 days from sowing. The savory, ultra-healthy alternative to pasta, Spaghetti Squash has always had just one disadvantage: unlike the real thing, you can't eat the leftovers cold for breakfast! Now Small Wonder Hybrid has come along to solve that problem and get rid of the guilt Spaaghetti Squash lovers have felt about not being able to eat an entire monster-sized squash! Small Wonder comes in "single serving" size, with just enough yummy strands to satisfy one or two hungry people. Sounds odd, but it's true -- you'll actually get MORE fruit from this smaller variety, because you needn't waste a single savory strand!

Small Wonder Hybrid is an attractive golden-orange oval with a pleasantly chunky shape and creamy yellow flesh. It is well "stranded" -- just slice it in half, steam, and fluff up the "noodles" for a delicious dinner! Just like its pasta counterpart, spaghetti squash is yummy with tomato- and cream-based sauces, as well as on its own with a little salt and butter or a squeeze of lemon juice. What a healthy, flavorful alternative to pasta!

This plant reaches 4 to 6 feet long, with a vining habit and superior productivity. Plan on a summer-long feast of delicious spaghetti squash with Small Wonder -- and if you can't eat it all at once, don't worry. Small Wonder has some of the best after-harvest holding ability of any squash we've seen!

Like all squash, Small Wonder grows best in full sunshine and rich, well-drained soil. Pick the fruit when it's 5 or 6 inches long and weighs about 3 pounds. Pkt is 20 seeds.

small spaghetti squash

These are great. Now that I'm retired & not cooking for a family, these give me 2 large portions to cook, 1 portion for each half. They even grow up my chain link fence where they take up very little room in my garden. The sturdy vines hold the maturing squash without any support other than the fence. The only attention they need is to occasionally direct their growth & make sure the squash do not grown between the fence links. I was happily surprised that they kept through the entire winter in my garage without any molding or spoilage. I just store them in cardboard boxes near the door to the house.

These did great last summer and we're still eating them in Dec and suspect they rest will hold out much longer. Perfect size
