Grows as a vine but can be kept to a semi bush by pinching out the ends. Quicker to mature than regular Buttercup but equally good eating and for winter storage.

  • Production légumière
OBS

Vignes coureuses prenant beaucoup de place; on conseille de les couper lorsqu'elles ont 1 m de longueur. Cette courge ressemble à la "Buttercup", sauf qu'elle n'a pas de bonnet sur le dessus. La chair est plus sucrée, de meilleur goût et se conserve plus longtemps l'hiver.
