We planted these way to late in our planting season to start germinating but with the reputation of this company I look forward to growing these pumpkins next spring! We ordered more packets because we are impressed with how healthy the plants grow and how fruitful they are as well.
One of my favorite things to plant. They were perfect for some pumpkin bread. Definitely recommend!
These made some excellent pies and muffins. Cute uniform pumpkins. Definitely would recommend.
Hi,
The seeds are just coming up and look good. However, there were only 20 seeds when the packet said approximately 25.
pumpkin pie is my favorite pie, and these meaty pumpkings are just right for a pie or two, and packed with flavor.
