These are the most amazing little pumpkins, they are the pefect size to have one each for a meal and taste really sweet and delicious, the plants produced about ten pumpkins per plant last year and were top of our list of seeds to buy this year. They are great when scooped out and filled with cream and cheese and baked or just used as an alternative to baked potatoes.
