Pyza produces light yellow, egg-shaped fruits typical of this group of varieties with pulp that breaks down into spaghetti-like threads when cooked.

The fruits weigh around 1.5 kg and are ideal for use. The plant grows bush-like, compact with short tendrils.

Spaghetti squash is also suitable for other pumpkin dishes.

C. pepo grows well on warm, well-drained soils, pre-cultivation and planting with sowing from the end of April or direct sowing from the beginning of May.
