Re: Long Neck Pumpkins


This sounds like C. moschata which, as I understand, is the grown
commercially for canned pumpkin.  I don't know for sure, but Rupp Seeds
may carry something like this.  They have an amazing variety of Curcurbit
species in their catalogue, which specializes in larger quantities of
seeds.  Lots of other small pie pumpkins are widely available and may be
naturally sweeter.
