Flat Stacker (F1) Pumpkin seeds
The Flat Stacker F1 pumpkin is an improved hybrid variety of the Flat White Boer. It bears the same unique ivory color and squatted shape, but has increased yields as well as powdery mildew-resistant, cucumber mosaic virus-resistant, spot virus-resistant, and papaya ring virus resistant.
This pumpkin is best for making tall elegant displays, especially stacking them from biggest to
smallest. Pumpkins will naturally grow this way on the vine, the biggest being towards the root end, and each pumpkin gradually gets smaller in size as the vine extends so nature has created the perfect setup already. These pumpkins are a beautiful ivory color with deep ribbing and an oblate-type shape.
Not only is this pumpkin perfect for creating elegant displays, but it's exquisite in flavor as well as the flesh is sweet with nutty notes. Each pumpkin can weigh 10-17 pounds.
