Out of stockCucurbita maxima French heirloom with unusual ornamental ‘warty’ skin and deep orange flesh. Despite lighter texture has a lovely flavour and used mostly for soups and sauces. Allow lots of drying time to enhance sweetness and deepen texture. Plant in full sun spring.

Cucurbita pepo This is a remarkable pumpkin? squash? whatever you'd like to call it. Large vine producing round green golden stripey fruit that ripens like most pumpkins, leaving them to mature on vine. Finally once opened there's the gift of sweet golden squash like flesh (great for soups) and delicious fresh pepita's which are so good for you. Plant needs lots of room and sun to prosper.

Cucurbita pepo I am often approached by my older customers seeking what they like to call a true squash. And this is the closest I can give them. Lovely flavour especially when roasted. To get the ‘spaghetti’ affect it needs baking. We cut in half, scoop out seeds, fill with eggs, cream, cheese and seasoning and bake first 20mins covered, last 10mins uncovered to crisp the top. Seriously yum.
