- Cucurbita maxima
Bag of 12 seeds
This old, very hardy variety produces "Buttercup"-type fruit, resembling a "Green Turkish Turban", weighing 2 to 3 kg. Their dark green skin encloses bright orange flesh with excellent flavor and pleasant sweetness.
Originally from North Dakota, this variety is the result of the work of Davis Podoll, who spent 40 years selecting its color, flavor, sweetness, vigor and resistance to cold.

Sow in pots at a temperature of between 18 and 20°C, 2 to 3 weeks before planting. Transplant, with the root ball, into the ground, after the last frosts, at a distance of at least 2 m in all directions. For sowing directly into the ground, sow after the last frosts, once the soil has warmed up. In both cases, prepare holes filled with compost or organic matter two weeks in advance to accommodate your plants or seeds.
