DESCRIPTION
A longtime favorite - one of the BEST pumpkins for canning and pies! An older, smaller variety of the Connecticut Field pumpkin. 4-6'L vines produce 2-3 deep orange, slightly ribbed and flattened, 7" diameter fruits weighing 6-8 lbs. Delicious, thick, sweet, golden orange flesh is superb for soups, muffins and casseroles. Good keeper.
CLASSIFICATIONS
OPEN POLLINATED
Pollination occurs by insect, bird, wind, humans, or other natural mechanisms. Because there are no restrictions on the flow of pollen between individuals, open-pollinated plants are more genetically diverse. However, as long as pollen is not shared between different varieties within the same species, then the seed produced will remain true-to-type year after year.
