Growing Musquee de Provence Pumpkin

‘Musquee de Provence,’ also known as 'Fairy Tale,' is a French heirloom prized for its burnished golden-brown rind and exceptional eating quality. Deeply ribbed, slightly flattened fruits resemble wheels of cheese and contain thick, fine-grained orange flesh.

Sow ‘Musquee de Provence’ directly in the garden about 1 inch deep and space plants 24 to 36 inches apart. Grow in full sun. This heat-tolerant variety performs especially well throughout warm summer conditions.

Ready to harvest in about 98 days, pick fruits once their characteristic golden-brown color and firm rind are fully developed.

Rich, smooth, and flavorful, ‘Musquee de Provence’ is excellent for roasting, pies, soups, baking, everyday cooking, and storage.

What am I gonna do with 191 pounds of pumpkins?

Planted one hill back in June. The two vines grew 25 feet long before it made fruit, but by August it had 14 pumpkins. I harvested in October after 130 days, the pumpkins ranged from 6 to 26 pounds. Currently using most of them as decoration but we did cook the smallest one, which was mildly sweet and had a nice flavor. I'll definitely grow again.
