Cucurbita pepo Maya Mixture is an extremely attractive and productive mix of mini pumpkins, specially selected for ornamental use. This variety is a top choice for hobby gardeners, flower arrangers, and ornamental pumpkin collectors seeking an early-maturing, colorful, and varied selection. Maya Mixture offers an incredible diversity of shapes and colors, making it an eye-catching addition to both the garden and autumn and Halloween decorations.

Key Features

The Maya mixture produces highly decorative pumpkins, approximately 10 cm in size, with a rich variety of shapes and colors. The combination of round, oblong, ribbed, and teardrop-shaped fruits creates a vibrant and lively mixture that instantly brightens up any autumn garden or interior. Thanks to its early yield and abundant fruit set, gardeners can quickly enjoy a bountiful harvest of attractive pumpkins.

Decorative applications

The Maya mixture is a true ornamental pumpkin and is not suitable for consumption. The small, colorful fruits are excellent for table decorations, flower arrangements, autumn centerpieces, Halloween decorations, and creative craft projects. This variety is ideal for hobby gardeners who want to harvest small, vibrant pumpkins for interior and exterior decorations.

Their uniform size of approximately 10 cm makes them perfect for miniature arrangements or as part of a decorative assortment. The variety in shape and color adds vibrancy and charm to any project.

Ripening and harvest

The Maya mixture matures in approximately 85 days, making it a mid-early variety that sets fruit quickly. The early harvest allows gardeners to achieve early decorative results and enjoy a long period of ornamental availability.

Cultivation advice

The Maya mixture grows best in warm, well-drained soil. The variety can be pre-grown from late April or direct sown from early May, depending on available space and climate.

  • Optimal germination temperature: 24–30 °C

  • Sowing method: Place the pointed side of the seed down or flat.

  • Humidity: Do not keep seeds too moist to prevent rot.

  • After germination: Place young plants in a lighter and cooler place

Growth behavior and planting distance

The Maya mixture has a luxuriant vine habit, so the plants need sufficient space to fully develop. Planting distance depends on the vine habit and the available garden soil. In general, it's important to provide sufficient space so the luxuriant vines can spread and the fruits grow uniformly and decoratively.
