No kabocha...not even a Cucurbita maxima, when I look at this little stem attachment left!
...Cucurbita moschata `Pearlô from Russia with a stronger ribbing then normally is seen...or is it a cross with this Pearl as mother and a `Black Futsuô as pollinator?

thank you, you may be right, one of the best tasting squash i have ever eaten but seemingly very rare here now in the uk

Did you save seeds?
I would really like to grow it here in southeastern Germany and Austria. We might change seeds then, since Iôve breeded some very interesting Cucurbita varieties for British climate too.
If youôd like, please write to: ludwig.ammer@gmail.com

...or is it a Tetsukabuto?
