Cucurbita pepo has been cultivated for centuries, and traces have been found in Mexico dating back to 8750 BCE. It is perhaps their undemanding nature that has helped them survive for so long, as Vilmorin-Andrieux noted, “(They) will grow anywhere if supplied with plenty of manure and moisture at the root.” This variety is not for winter storing but is delicious when enjoyed fresh. It produces creamy white flat fruits with a scalloped edge from a bush habit.
