Pumpkin – Winter Luxury is a beautifully netted, golden-orange pie pumpkin with a reputation for outshining every other baking pumpkin in the patch. Its creamy-sweet flesh, fine texture, and perfect balance of sugars make it a favourite among chefs and home bakers alike.

This heirloom variety isn’t just about flavour—its lacy, netted rind looks like it’s been dusted with frost, giving it a truly luxurious appearance in the garden or autumn display. Winter Luxury produces reliably even in cooler Canadian seasons, yielding 5–7 lb (2.2–3.1 kg) fruits with dense flesh ideal for pies, soups, and roasting. If you’ve ever wondered what pumpkin pies tasted like a hundred years ago… this is the one.
