They are Cousa Squash. If you want cousa squash, these are the seeds to get as all of our seed sprouted and produced. However, if you are in search of Puerto Rican Pumpkin/calabaza, these are not the seeds for you. We were very disappointed to find this out as we were counting on the calabaza for an authentic recipe. ### ⭐ Definitely not what I ordered. *by B***K on Reviewed in the United States on September 12, 2019* I can't identify what squash I got. A few plants produced some kind of small, round yellow squash and others produced a larger, oblong squash. Very disappointed. Will not be ordering again. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy to grow *by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on May 13, 2020* Easy to grow. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/125643026-puerto-rican-pumpkin-calabaza-25-seeds-open-pollinated-heirloom](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/125643026-puerto-rican-pumpkin-calabaza-25-seeds-open-pollinated-heirloom) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-17*
