Saw a blue/grey coloured, round, pumpkin shaped,
squash at the RHS Wisley apple weekend

I would strongly recommend a winter squash called "Cobnut". It's not the
blue thing you saw but:

- Tastes like a superior "Butternut" squash
- Supposedly bred to ripen well in the UK climate.
- Works well for me
