Great flavour, good keeping (so far), We are a small bio-dynamic farm in West Gippsland Victoria, selling direct to our customers. The attractive appearance helps sell it while the flavour has them coming back for more.

This is a very attractive pumpkin. It is a good strong grower, sets fruit well and does not seem to suffer from mildew. It appears to be a long keeper so far. I will definatley be growing more next year.
