Pumpkin Hundred Weight

Producing large, round orange fruits of up to 25kg, this is a real showstopper and a great one for the children ( and the big kids too) to grow in competitions, though a 'hundredweight' is more likely to be achieved if just a single fruit is left to grow on each plant. Perhaps not one for the smaller gardens, but great for larger spaces or the vegetable patch. A great variety for roasting, soups and pies, as well as some monster Halloween lanterns! Best grown in a sheltered position in full sun, with well-drained soil.
