Cucurbita maxima 105 days. An elegant French heirloom with an appropriately elegant sounding name. Magnifique! This stunning squash has salmon-peach colored skin covered with peanut shell-like warts caused by sugar in the skin. Traditionally used in France for soups and sauces, when cooked, the sweet, orange flesh is as smooth as velvet. Each flattened squash weighs 10–15 pounds and can store for up to 6 months. Definitely a show stopper in the garden or on the table. Approximately 4 seeds per gram.
