Vegetable Spaghetti Winter Squash Seeds (Cucurbita pepo) produce a unique heirloom squash with tender flesh that separates into delicious spaghetti-like strands when cooked. Mild, slightly sweet, and nutritious, spaghetti squash is a healthy low-carb alternative to pasta and is perfect for baking, roasting, stuffing, and a variety of family meals. Vigorous vines produce abundant oval fruits that store well after harvest, making this an excellent choice for home gardens.
