Pumpkins 'Starburst' F1

  • Product number: 215272
  • Origin: North America
  • Latin: Cucurbita maxima

Another beauty, with the added bonus of great taste and reliable disease resistance. The climbing plants bear many fruits 20-25 cm in diameter and approximately 15 cm high. The pumpkins are beautifully marbled in purple-grey with peach-red; some fruits have different shades of blue to grey, and many fruits are speckled. Most of these sharply ribbed pumpkins stack well, weighing an average of 6-7 kg.

We are very happy to be able to sell the wonderful assortment from Outstanding Seed Company. This American company from Beaver Falls (Pennsylvania) specializes in breeding and improving (through traditional cultivation) pumpkins. They focus on improving colour, shape, taste, disease resistance, harvest time, harvest size, and storability. It's great to be able to buy directly from the source!
