Lil’ Pump-Ke-Mom is totally unique with stunning orange stripes over white skin. In fact they are so stunning you will find it difficult to ‘spoil’ them by cutting them up! We won’t mind if you just grow them for their looks but do remember they taste very nice too.
SOW: in individual pots inside during April or early May, seed depth 2.5cm. Keep on a windowsill til sprouted then pop into a cold frame or unheated greenhouse. Keep moist and warm, ready to plant out when at 2/3 leaf stage.
GROW: harden off well before planting out. Give them 1m between plants! You can train the vines in a circle and remove flowers after several pumpkins have set to concentrate growth, this will still give you plenty! Allow 15 weeks growing from transplanting.
EAT & ENJOY: very nice taste - perfect to stuff and bake. Medium storage, can last into the new year.
