Moranga Squash Seeds

(Cucurbita maxima). We are so excited to, at last, have seeds for the wonderful “Pink Pumpkin”. This is a very hard-to-find traditional squash from Brazil. The fruit is ribbed, light pink to salmon in color, and weighs in at a modest 4-8 pounds. Traditionally used to make a dish called Camarão na Moranga which means ‘shrimps in a squash’.
