Jaune Gros De Paris (Yellow of Paris) Pumpkin seeds
Jaune Gros De Paris is a French treasure that can grow to 100+ pounds (45.359 kilograms)! This pumpkin's origins are rooted in France's history as one of their national heirlooms. Yellow of Paris derives its name from its pink-golden color. This pumpkin is not deeply ribbed like traditional U.S. varieties, but it's still unique, to say the least. The exterior is smooth, but when left to fully ripen can develop a subtle net pattern on the top that adds plenty of character.This pumpkin is round, somewhat flat, and an attractive variety for the yard/garden. These pumpkins are delicious and best featured in pies, soups, baked or used in desserts.
