Zephyr is known in Greek mythology as the god of the West Winds. To me, Zephyr means the best squash I have ever tasted.  Zephyr is also the most beautiful squash you'll ever see. Two-thirds of the club-shaped fruit is bright yellow, while the blossom end has a distinct green section. 
This squash has a tender creamy-yellow hued flesh that is rich in dry matter and has a sweet and nutty flavor with a creamy finish.  Zephyr squash offers an excellent source of dietary fiber as well as alpha-carotene, beta-carotene, folate and copper. Additionally it is a source of carotenoids which are not only responsible for the yellow hue of the Zephyr squash but also act as antioxidants in the human body.
