Hubbard Squash
This is a superior variety, and the best winter squash known; flesh bright orange yellow, fine grained, very dry, sweet, and rich-flavored; keeps perfectly good throughout the winter; boils or bakes exceedingly dry, and is esteemed by many to be as good baked as the sweet potato. This variety we recommend as being superior to any other variety of winter squash in cultivation.
