I got some seeds from one of my SC neighbors, he had acquired them from Park Seed retail store.....they gave him some little pumpkins from a plant growing by the door. Mine is in a very dry area and is only about 1 1/2 - 2 feet tall and there are flowers, but no little pumpkins---YET! They are fun so see in the fall...little pumpkins.<br />I Janet, The Queen of Seafordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07876204203323750245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7113123529932691813.post-15544795225163819012011-08-18T06:40:05.694-05:002011-08-18T06:40:05.694-05:00I heard about that pumpkin before but never had th...I heard about that pumpkin before but never had the chance to grow them.

I was ready to try a new dessert treat! Thought Pumpkin on a Stick would be a great sweet to try. However, as I read on it is only for the decoration, not the eating! In any case, an interesting plant, may try next year if I can get a couple of seeds.

Of course since we've only had 5 days of summer weather here just outside of Seattle, we'd never be able to grow them unless in a greenhouse.

Judging from the price you may want to skip giving them to your garden club and sell them, a few may pay for your thanksgiving turkey. I have grown another ornamental eggplant called the Easter Egg plant. It grew perfectly sized, egg-shaped fruit in assorted pastel colors. It was a lot of fun.Leshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18281256160705697856noreply@blogger.com
