Rouge vii" is French for "vivid red" and describes the glowing red orange color of this famous pumpkin. Found in the Paris Market for centuries it is what the artist who drew Cinderella's coach used as a model. This Heirloom variety was introduced in the US in 1883.
Since then this slightly flattened, heavily ribbed pumpkin is popular for fall displays and its tasty, moderately sweet orange flesh is popular for use in pies. Long vines produce 3-4 beautiful pumpkins some as large as 15 inches across and up to 30 pounds.
