A distinguished Romanesco-type squash with attractive, dark and light green striping on ridged fruit. Cutting the fruit in rounds reveals its signature, star-shaped cross-section and light, creamy green flesh. Crisp and flavorful, Latino has just a hint of nuttiness. Pick when fruit are at their prime; about 6–8 inches long. Open bushes allow for easy spotting and harvesting of the squash. 55 days from transplant. F1. Photo courtesy of Territorial Seed.
Care: Plant 3-4′ apart in rows 5-6′ apart in full sun. Keep soil uniformly moist. Harvest often to encourage additional fruits.
