Ok folks its been a very longtime since I have been in here..but as many of you might remeber I am a squash freak...I searched for a very long time to find the Hopi Black and finally got that one...people have said they think its a Musquee Du Province but I grow both of them and it isnt there are differnces especially in the flavor...but now I have anohter target..n fact 2 of them one is called Windsor Black the other is called Ironbark..I found it on the 200 acres but they stopped selling it because they were having trouble with it so...and the other, the only place I have seen it is in overseas sites that dont sell to America...so...next question does anybody have these? I am always on the lookout for rare Moschatas also...or even interspecies crosses I have some from Joseph but I was wanting Maxima X Moschata I already have Tetsubuko {Spelling}. I have about 2 acres of squash planted and obviously it would be to late to start anymore this year but I store them in a foodsaver bag with desicant and they stay good for years.... If any of you can help me out please PM me.
Thank you Dean Slater

Ironbark looks interesting...but there seems to be 2 of them.

I found a couple in Australia and one in the UK...the UK might be able to ship to the US, if someone has an import permit.
But, I'm not sure the UK one has it in stock right now.

Sounds cool. Also i'm glad you decided that the Hopi Black is different than Musque de Province. Though i have never grown that type i have grown the Hopi Black and i really liked it. It barely matured in my climate, so breeding it to Joseph's early Moshata landrace or something would be something i'd be interested in. Would like to grow it again. Out of curiosity which did you like better for taste since they are similar.

Definetly the Hopi it was sweeter and drier always is much darker flesh also when it is still green it is almost black as the Musquee is def dark green but never as dark as hopi
