Product Description
PUMPKIN: The name pumpkin originated from the Greek word for "large melon" which is "pepon." Pumpkins are grown all around the world for a variety of reasons ranging from agricultural purposes to commercial and ornamental sales. Pumpkins are very versatile in their uses for cooking, from the fleshy shell, to the seeds, to even the flowers; most parts of the pumpkin are edible. Traditionally, pumpkin is a very popular Halloween and Thanksgiving staple.

This review is from: Musque de Provence Pumpkin 10 Seeds - Fairytale
These particular pumpkins were recommended on an independent gardening forum that I'm a member of, for resistance to squash vine borers, [Once they get past the seedling stage, the vines are supposedly too tough for them to penetrate] and also they're said to be great for cooking and pies. Since the gardeners on the forum are serious growers, [and I happen to love anything pumpkin!] I decided to give these a try. This company was prompt, price was right,[these seeds can be expensive!] and so far, my plants are happily growing in the pumpkin patch. I'll post our end of season results later....
