Ebisu Squash

These are a lovely variety of Kabocha squash, my seeds came from Irish Seed Savers a few years ago and I believe they received them from a visiting Japanese conservationist. Ebisu does well here and is really gorgeous tasting.

I think I have one selfed fruit, hopefully with seeds!
Some fruits so far,

I'm pleased to see several of these, nice compact sized fruits, ideal for me use up
Someones been helping themselves to a bit of one.

They tasted very good, though didn't store as well as I had hoped for, I'm growing some similar types this year as they are just so delicious. I'm not sure I ever got seeds, I'll have to go and have a rummage.
