Triamble squash (Cucurbita maxima)
This rather unique variety of heirloom squash was imported from Australia in the 1930s. It produces fruits with three pale steel blue lobes which give it a very distinctive and decorative appearance. But make no mistake, its taste is just as enjoyable! It has an orange flesh, soft, of good quality, delicious in soup or mashed potatoes.
