Uniform and extremely productive
Havana is the largest of our butternuts, with tan fruits that average 3-4 lb. (1.3-1.8 kg). This variety is uniform and extremely productive. Blocky fruits have a thick neck and a small seed cavity. Flesh is intense orange and tasty. The plant is vigorous and semi-vining, with some tolerance to powdery mildew. Havana has good post-harvest shelf life, and ripens fairly early for its size.
