Paw Paw Pumpkin

We met up with some fellow gardeners and seed savers on Sunday. We have been meeting fairly regularly - every 3-4 months - for the last 3 years or so. This has always been a good opportunity to show off our produce and swap seeds & seedlings.
Unfortunately, 2 of our good friends are leaving for a new adventure in New Zealand. We will miss you!

This is a Paw Paw Pumpkin. They are fairly small - therefore manageable - pumpkins.
The whole pumpkin.


Cut in half. The colour is a very deep, rich orange. We haven't tasted it yet, but shall do so very soon

  2. Hi Jeremy! Welcome to this blog.
    Eden Seeds sells these seeds. I don't know whether there is a restriction sending them to WA. But they'd be able to tell you. Good luck! :)

I am always happy to read your comments, dear readers. However, I am trialling 'word verification' for a little while, as I have been receiving a lot of spam. The spam never makes it onto the comment pages, as I am moderating all comments. But it is starting to get tedious to moderate all the spam. I hope this will not cause any inconvenience to any of may regular readers. Please leave a comment - I am always happy to hear from you! :)
