Product Code: 53604 Price: Check Latest
  (C. moschata): 95 days. [Cultivated in Florida by the Seminole Indians in the 1500's.] Keeps up to 1 year at room temperature! Fruits are sweeter than 'Butternut' and have a firm, deep orange colored flesh. Large vines bear bell-shaped buff colored fruits averaging 7" in diameter. Resistant to vine borers. A good choice for hot, humid, disease-prone areas. Give it ample moisture and room to roam. A choice variety for flavor and color. Pkt. (2 g), Limit 1 packet. This is a perfect family or market squash. Though they are too small for all but the skillful widdler to carve, they make a gorgeous decoration whole and their flesh cannot be beat for flavor. The best looking ones need no special conditions to keep for a long long time; I kept one on my desk (maintained at 65 degrees) as a paperweight for over a year before it got a soft spot. I was particularly struck by how heavily it yielded. 1 fruit is the perfect serving for 2 people, or maybe one hungry person. Oh, and what a wonderful pie pumpkin!!! -Cricket Rakita
