La Estrella Pumpkin seeds

In Spanish, "La Estrella" translates to "The Star," and the La Estrella pumpkin has truly earned its celestial name. Hailing from the tropical landscapes of Florida, this heat-resistant gem showcases a vibrant red-orange hue adorned with flecks of dark green and tan. Its interior boasts a smooth and sweet flesh, reminiscent of melon-like goodness, while the minimal ribbing and smooth, waxy surface add to its visual appeal.
 
La Estrella holds a special place in the hearts of culinary enthusiasts, particularly in Cuban and Caribbean cuisines, as well as South America. Its versatility in the kitchen makes it a prized ingredient for a variety of dishes.
 
Not only is this pumpkin a star in the kitchen, but it's also a star in the garden. With short vines, La Estrella is the perfect choice for those with limited garden space. Along the tropical coast, you can anticipate the arrival of these pumpkins in approximately 70 days. However, in the cooler Northern regions, maturity may extend to a longer timeframe, reaching upwards of 125-130 days. La Estrella exhibits some resistance to common challenges like Powdery Mildew, CYMV, VMV, and WMR.
