Pumpkin Musquee de Provence is a distinguished French heirloom baking variety that represents the culinary standard of Southern France, where it remains a staple in regional markets and home kitchens. These ribbed, flattened fruits feature tan coloring and substantial size, averaging 8 to 15 pounds—notably larger than comparable Long Island Cheese varieties. The variety's prominence in French culinary tradition reflects generations of appreciation for its exceptional baking characteristics and flavor profile. The flesh delivers genuine gastronomic merit with thick, deep orange coloring and moderately sweet flavor ideally suited for traditional pumpkin preparations, soups, and baked goods. In France, wedges are routinely sold in supermarkets and farmers' markets for direct cooking, demonstrating the variety's commercial viability and consumer demand. This market presence underscores the variety's culinary reputation and practical utility beyond home gardening applications. Musquee de Provence combines decorative appeal with legitimate culinary excellence, making it ideal for gardeners valuing both aesthetic and functional harvests. The distinctive ribbed, flattened form creates visual interest in autumn displays while maintaining the substance and flavor required for serious cooking applications. Late maturity characteristics—reaching harvest in approximately 130 days—enable extended growing seasons and concentrated autumn production. Exceptional storage longevity distinguishes this variety, maintaining quality and flavor throughout extended winter storage periods. Plants produce an average yield of 2 fruits per plant, allowing focused cultivation of premium specimens. With a germination rate of 80% or better, these seeds establish reliably and consistently. Our Non-GMO seeds are sustainably produced without genetic modification, preserving the variety's authentic French characteristics and genetic integrity.
