The thick flesh is sweet and richly flavoured, making it particularly good for soups, roasting, baking and purées.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eTraditionally associated with the market gardens around Paris, this old French variety was grown for its large size, excellent eating quality and ability to keep through the colder months. Mature fruits store well when properly cured, making it a useful winter pantry pumpkin as well as a striking garden variety.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003ePlants form vigorous trailing vines and need plenty of room to spread.
