Lungo Bianco Di Sicilia

squashes are matching my blouse.😀 I grow it for the first time, and loved this variety.
I think, this squash is related to Rampicante, because the fruits get really long.
These are very young, 2-3 days old fruits and look like adult ones.
I want to leave one of it to reach full maturity to see how far it goes.
Overall, I like this type a lot.
The plants are not that compact.
Although it is a bush type, it looks to me like the vines are going to grow 3-4’ long.
The funny thing about this squash is that the fruits very well camouflage with the vines.
It is especially hard for me with astigmatism to distinguish the squashes from the stems.
The plants bear 2 squashes per week so far.
It is a good type for small families like mine not to get overwhelmed with harvests and consumtion.
I am going to try squash soup with these two for tonight - it is so rewarding to step outside and pick what you need for dinner.

You might be thinking “why this woman gets crazy about soups these days.”
It is because we are observing Ramadan currently, and we start dinner with warm soup to prevent our empty stomachs from possible stresses.
My husband and I like eating soup for breakfast too during Ramadan.
