Pumpkins 'Royal Blue' F1

  • Product number: 215210
  • Origin: Australia
  • Latin: Cucurbita maxima

This type originates from Australia (check out the 'Queensland Blue' 215150) and is now experiencing a spectacular American improvement in taste and harvest...! The fruits are flattened and deeply grooved, grey to blue-grey in colour with a rough texture. The deep orange flesh is sweet, dry, and of excellent quality and taste. The average diameter is over 30 cm with a height of 15 cm. They weigh 5-7 kg, the vining plants have significant vigour and are very resistant to mildew. So you can certainly count on a large and long-lasting harvest of fruits that can be stored for a long time.

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 growing and improving (through traditional breeding) pumpkins. They pay attention to improving colour, shape, taste, disease resistance, harvest time, harvest size, and storability. It's great to be able to buy directly from the source!
