Pumpkins 'Golden Apple'
- Product number: 215128
- Origin: North America
- Latin: Cucurbita pepo
A beautiful, small, orange-yellow French pumpkin that can be compared to its well-known South African cousin, the Rondini type (215220). This mini pumpkin has many possibilities: it can be stored for a long time, making it ideal for decoration, but it also has a fresh taste, making it good to eat and ideal for cooking whole! The spherical fruits are about 10 cm in diameter. If harvested unripe, they could be considered round, climbing courgettes. This easy-to-grow pumpkin thrives even on the poorest soil, although rich soil will produce a larger plant with a much larger harvest.
Pumpkins can be grown outdoors without any problems. The growing tips can be pruned regularly and are edible! Harvesting during dry weather ensures the best storability. All pumpkins are edible!
