Hi Emily
What species are you after....I have a suash type of pumpkin (Curcurbita pepo) called Lady Godiva....which is a naked seeded (hulled seed) type
I also have a Kombucha type of pumpkin...a Japanese type which has a delicious and wonderfully dry flesh, medium sized fruit...from memory I think it is a C.moschata
I also have a small squash looking pumpkin called Delicata...looks like a zucchini type of pumpkin but has a dry squash like fruit which is golden in colour with green stripes...tastes great too
cheers
Peter

Hi Peter, I am after the 'average' type of vining pumpkin just some different varities for a change in taste. (Sorry I don't know the species names)
I like the sound of the japanese Kombucha and the Delicata one is it a vine? Will they grow in SE Qld?
Thanks Emily

I'm growing a Pink Banana Pumpkin this year as an experiment ( for a change) and am happy to save some seeds for you - they are just starting to develop fruits. Cheers Cosmic
