Sustainable Seed Company Galeux D'eysines Squash Seeds

This variety is famous for its distinctive, peanut-like warts that develop on the skin as the fruit matures. Beyond its striking appearance, it is prized for its exceptionally sweet, orange flesh that works beautifully in savory dishes.

Like most winter squashes, Galeux D'eysines are vining plants that require significant room to spread. Plan for a large garden bed or a trellis system to support their growth, ensuring they have plenty of space to sprawl.

Yes, because these are open-pollinated seeds, you can successfully save the seeds from your harvest to plant in future seasons. Just ensure the squash is fully mature before harvesting to ensure the seeds are viable.

The squash is ready for harvest when it reaches its full maturity at approximately 96 days. Look for the skin to turn a salmon-peach color and ensure the rind is hard enough that you cannot easily pierce it with your fingernail.

Due to their vining habit, these plants are generally not recommended for small containers. They perform best when planted directly in the ground where their roots can access deep nutrients and the vines have ample room to run.
