Little gem squash seeds?

[Millie]

Help, Ive searched high and low and I just cant find seeds!

Any ideas?






(Not sure if this is the best forum, didnt seem to fit elsewhere.)

We aare growing little gem - we saved the seeds from a little gem that we bought and ate!! We've done that with a lot of the things we are growing this year.

Thanks Milims, will keep an eye out, havent found any in supermarkets as yet. I think Asda sell them in a "squash mix" where its pot luck if you get Gems. Might pop to the local farm shop on the off chance

Found them in the big T so will get some seeds and then try and grow me own

Just for future reference Millie, I bought some from Ebay along with about 5 other varieties too

little gem...hmmm. I was surpirsed to see Little Gem in a farmshop in Sussex. I have friends who are from south africa and they love them over there, very popular. Will find some tried and tested recipes if i can for them. They stuff well though, contents mixed with butter black pepper and garlic...hmm

Had been wondering what to do with them - thanks! Have to say they dont look very appetising at the moment

They are devine! My new fave veg! My hubby (who is from SA) wanted me to try them, and I wasnt too keen. We got one from T*sco and he cut it in half, steamed in the microwave, added a small knob of butter and I ate it with a spoon, gorgeous!!!!!
