Jaune et Verte Squash is a classic French heirloom summer squash producing distinctive pale green scalloped fruits. Best harvested young, the tender flesh has a mild, buttery flavour ideal for sautéing, grilling, stuffing, and roasting. If allowed to mature on the vine, the fruits develop a pale, hardened skin and make fun “ghost-o-lanterns”—their scalloped edges and light colouring giving them a whimsical, ghostly look for fall displays. Plants are productive and easy to grow, offering both culinary value and ornamental appeal.

*Days to Maturity – Ready to harvest in approximately 50–55 days. *Yellow & Green Fruits – Eye-catching pale green scalloped fruits. *Mild, Tender Flavor – Best harvested young for excellent texture and taste. *Dual-Purpose Variety – Delicious as a summer squash or left to mature for decorative ghost-o-lanterns. *Productive Summer Squash – Reliable yields over a long harvest period.

Each packet contains approximately 15 seeds.

For a healthy start, begin squash seeds indoors no more than 3-4 weeks before your last frost date. Squash plants are sensitive to becoming root-bound, which can lead to transplanting stress, so avoid starting them too early.
Plant seeds 1-2 inches (2.5-5 cm) deep, covering lightly with soil. Keep the soil consistently moist until germination, typically in 5-10 days, although it may take longer in cooler soil.
When transplanting outdoors, space plants 2-3 feet (60-90 cm) apart for bush varieties, and allow 4-5 feet (120-150 cm) between plants for vining types. This spacing ensures proper airflow and room for growth, leading to a bountiful squash harvest.
