We are shipping all orders prior to August 28th as quick as we can, though your seeds may not arrive ’til October. Thanks for your patience and grace!

Life is short, eat dessert first!
Super small and super sweet, if you love Honeynut but wish it stored longer and was powdery mildew resistant, meet Brulee. We enjoy her deep into the winter and though she isn’t quite as sweet as Honeynut, her flavor is off the charts compared to a classic butternut. Halved & roasted on a plate, nothing more, is our favorite way to savor Brulee deep in to winter.
Planting Method: Direct Sow or Transplant
To Direct Sow: After last frost, sow 2 seeds every 3-4 feet in rich soil, thinning to one.
For Transplanting: Start seedlings 3 weeks before final frost in peat pots or soil blocks for minimal root disturbance. Transplant after last frost.
Plant care: Plant with plenty of rich compost and allow for them to vine up fencing. Protect from cucumber beetle with floating row cover – remove when the plants start flowering.
