Pumpkin 'Newton' F1

  • Product number: 214670
  • Origin: North America
  • Latin: Cucurbita maxima

Beautiful pink is not ugly! What a great sight when you combine a group of these fruits with Coleus plants as in the photo... You can expect round, flat-round, or heart-shaped fruits, sometimes with white stripes along the ribs. Each fruit has a very good taste, but you can also postpone "slaughtering" the fruit, as they have a long shelf life. The vining plants remain healthy due to their mildew resistance and easily bear several 10-15 kg heavy fruits.

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