Cucurbita pepo

Baking Type

Whether this pumpkin goes by "Small Sugar" or "Pie" there's no denying it is a sweetie! Bright orange flesh is finely grained, meaty and just perfect for pumpkin pies like Grandma used to make! Produces a large crop of round fruits 20-25 cm (8-10") in diameter that store quite well. A New England variety introduced by the 1880's.

How to Grow

Pumpkin is a hot weather crop. They need full sun and deep, rich, well drained, organic soil with a pH of 5.5 to 6.5. Before planting, work in lots of compost. Sow seed directly outdoors in late May through early June 2.5 cm (1") deep in hills 2.4 m (8') apart with 4-6 seeds per hill. After germination, thin to 3 plants per hill. Seed can be started indoors 3 weeks before the plant out date. Pumpkins do not transplant well-use paper or fibre pots that can be set directly in the soil. Protect mature pumpkins from frost and cold temperatures.

Approx. 15 seeds/pkt.
