And maybe there will be more

What they were, what they are now.

Burpee’s told me their Pilgrim butternuts start out and stay the color shown on the seed packet, so no, what I was describing was not that and that the critters must have planted mine.

I wonder if they simply had a plant that got pollinated by something they didn’t want. Either way, my six remaining squashes are gradually coming to look like what I want anyway, so, close enough, I figure.

Funny that they told you that they start out orange/tan because I have grown Pilgrim and mine looked just like that until they matured. I will say I didn’t care as much for them as I do Waltham Butternut, so now Waltham is all I grow.
