Cucurbita pepo — Scallop squash — also called pattypan or flying saucer squash — is one of the most charming and productive summer squash you can grow. This heirloom blend combines yellow, white, and green scallop varieties in a single packet, delivering a colorful, continuous harvest of tender, buttery-fleshed fruits from midsummer through frost. Ready in just 50 days. Harvest small at 3–5 inches for the best flavor and to keep plants producing all season.
Harvest at 3–5 inches for peak tenderness and flavor. Sauté whole baby scallops in butter with garlic and fresh herbs. Halve and roast at high heat until caramelized. Stuff larger fruits with grains, cheese, or meat and bake. Slice thin and grill. The mild, buttery flesh pairs beautifully with bold seasonings.
Direct sow outdoors after last frost when soil reaches 60°F, or start indoors 3–4 weeks before last frost. Sow 1 inch deep in fertile, well-draining soil. Full sun. Space 24–36 inches apart. Consistent watering supports healthy growth and maximum yield. Harvest frequently at 3–5 inches diameter — leaving fruits on the plant slows production.
