Where can I find Malatonin/Coyote Squash seeds??

Jonesboro, GA(Zone 7b)

I will be glad to buy some, or trade if anyone here has them. I have looked at several seed companies to no avail.
Not sure of the spelling, but these things look similar to an avacado but are light green. They grow on a vine like regular squash.
Malatonins are expensive to buy in the store if you can find them, about $1.00 each. They are so delicious stuffed with sausage or shrimp, etc.

Try mirlitons or chayote squash -- sometimes you can find them in gourmet markets or mexican markets. Plant the whole squash. Hope that helps, Joe

Thanks Joe, I did get a couple and got them planted.

Hi, when mirlitons (pronounced: milli taw[n]) are in season you can even get them at the gas station by my house. For them to do well, you let the whole thing start to rot and set out a vine like a sweet potato, then you can plant it (vine up obviously) by a fence or something.
