Description

The scalloped gem of the summer garden. ‘Benning’s Green Tint’ produces charming, saucer-shaped fruits with gentle scallops and a soft green hue that deepens as they mature. The flavor is mild, buttery, and tender—ideal for sautéing, grilling, or stuffing whole.

Compact bush plants reach 2–3 feet across and yield heavily throughout summer, thriving in full sun and warm soil. Fruits are best harvested young, at 3–4 inches wide, for peak flavor.

An early 20th-century American heirloom, this pattypan squash embodies both beauty and bounty—graceful in form, generous in yield, and rich in garden heritage.
