Victor squash, is a striking heirloom Hubbard-type winter squash that starts pale yellow and develops deep red-orange, warty skin as it ripens, making it great for autumn decoration and cooking. Its sweet, reddish-orange flesh is similar to pumpkin, good for soups, roasting, pies, and stews. 
Grow in rich, fertile, well drained soil in full sun. Start indoors from mid-late April, sowing in individual pots with seeds on their side about 1.5cm deep. Harden off before June then transplant outdoors to final growing position.
