The cheese pumpkin, famous for making pumpkin pies was available through many seed retailers through the 1800's and into the 1960's. But then suddenly, it disappeared. Medium-large, flattened, medium-ribbed, suggesting a wheel of cheese. Smooth, tan skin, slender woody stem. Deep orange, moderately sweet flesh for pie. Long storage. A beautiful old time variety, open pollinated.
