The Tuffy pepper squash is an acorn-type variety selected for kitchen gardens and small vegetable patches. It produces individual, ribbed fruits that ripen to a typical pepper squash color, ready for autumn cooking. Each plant, started in spring in suitable soil, develops long, creeping stems that provide good ground cover.

In the garden, Tuffy stands out for its good productivity and consistent fruit shape. It thrives in the summer heat and light to complete its life cycle, before offering, at the end of the season, squash perfectly suited for roasting and comfort food. In a harmonious garden, it deserves a sunny spot and should be patiently cared for throughout the seasons.
