Our Feedback
Thank you so much for my BILO-TECHNICA it has started to work already and I think it has only been in the pond for a couple of weeks! I wish I had taken a photograph of my green pond water to let everyone see how bad it was! I can now see my fish and I have not fed them since putting the bag in the pond. I won't be buying anymore chemicals to to clear the water or anymore fish food. Thanks again.

Supplied as a packet of 5 seeds.
This Product is Available Now.In our opinion this is the best flavoured and best storing variety of Winter squash of them all.
We've also found it to be extremely reliable and produce a crop in even the harder growing seasons - we found 2011 not to be an easy year due to the cold night temperatures, yet Crown Prince still managed a good crop of reasonably sized fruits.
The rich golden flesh is gorgeously sweet and has an excellent texture making it perfect for grilling, roasting, or sautéing. For 'the ultimate' chop into 1" (4 cm) squares drizzle with olive oil and slow roast for a couple of hours before incorporating into a risotto - truly wonderful.
Although bred in Australia, this is a relative of the Kabocha squash (otherwise known as the Japanese Pumpkin); fruits can vary in size from 3-8lbs (1-2 - 4 Kg).
Recommended by the RHS to be an excellent attractant and nectar source for bees and other beneficial insects.
