Cucurbita pepo Lunar F1 Mixture is a uniquely decorative blend of patissons, perfect for gardeners seeking color, variety, and edible ornamental gourds. This unique mix features pure white fruits, white fruits with yellow stripes, and white fruits with green stripes, making every harvest a colorful and eye-catching display. The combination of different shapes and patterns makes Lunar F1 an excellent choice for decorative arrangements, culinary preparations, and themed autumn gardens.
Lunar F1 is known for its striking, graceful shapes, with some fruits having distinctly more pronounced "fingers," a characteristic of patissons. The fruits are uniform in size, with a diameter of 12 to 20 cm, making them perfect for use as a culinary mini-pumpkin or as a decorative element.
These patissons are robust and long-lasting, meaning they retain their shape, color, and quality even when stored for extended periods. Lunar F1 is therefore ideal for gardeners who value both aesthetics and functionality.
The ripening period is 80–85 days, making Lunar F1 suitable for mid-early harvest. Pattypan squash can be harvested young and used as a summer zucchini, or fully ripe for decoration and culinary use. The compact size and long shelf life of the fruits make the variety particularly suitable for varied harvests and creating colorful displays.
Lunar F1 grows best in warm, well-drained, nutrient-rich soil. Seeds can be pre-sown from late April or directly sown from early May.
For optimal germination, a temperature of 24–30°C is recommended. The seeds should be pointed downwards or laid flat and not kept too moist. After germination, it's advisable to place the young plants in a brighter, cooler location to develop strong, healthy plants.
Pattypan squash from the Lunar F1 mixture grows in bushes, is compact, and easy to manage. Each plant requires approximately 1 square meter of space, making them suitable for small and medium-sized gardens. Thanks to their compact growth, several plants can be planted together without losing much space.
The Lunar F1 patissons are very versatile in the kitchen:
Filled: The medium-sized fruits can be hollowed out and filled with vegetables, grains or meat.
Roasted or steamed: the flesh is tender, aromatic and suitable for side dishes.
As a young crop: young fruits can be used like courgette for salads or sautés.
Decorative and edible: ideal for combining with other colorful pumpkins for autumn tables or Halloween decorations.
Lunar F1 is especially popular for its exuberant color variation and striking shapes. The mix of pure white, white with yellow stripes, and white with green stripes creates a playful and aesthetically pleasing effect, making these patissons also suitable for flower arranging and garden arrangements.
