 Organic Listing    
  C. agryosperma.  Winter squash, Cushaw-type, pear-shaped.   Outside is white with speckly green and white stripes; interior is light orange, mild tasting, not too dense.  Bottom part of the "bell" is hollow.  Good producer, not very fussy about soil conditions, and despite being a hollow squash with a relatively tender skin keeps well for months. Seeds are almost white with a tan ridge around the outside.
From an SSE member many years ago who said it was originally from India and very rare.
