An heirloom variety dating back to 1863, Small Sugar pumpkins are the gold standard for pie baking and canning. These compact plants produce small, round fruits averaging 8 inches tall and 9 inches wide with a deep orange color and light ribbing. The fine-grained, stringless flesh makes them ideal for creating smooth, delicious pies. Known by many names including Boston Pie and Sugar Pie, this classic variety remains a favorite among home gardeners and bakers seeking authentic, flavorful results.
