Pumpkins 'Atlantic Giant'
- Product number: 213200
- Origin: North America
- Latin: Cucurbita maxima
Propagated by nurseries from an original Dill's selection. The fruits grow large, initially spherical, later (due to their weight) sagging and flattened: a comically clunky shape. The color is salmon with extensive corking.
Pumpkins can be grown outdoors without problems. The growing tips can be pruned regularly and are edible! Harvesting during dry weather provides the best storability. All pumpkins are edible!
