Howden Pumpkin seeds

SKU: H00358

A true Halloween and Fall classic! The Howden pumpkin is a classic Autumn heirloom variety grown for its dependability, subtle ribbing, deep orange hue, and sturdy stems. Due to its large seed cavity, and thinner walls, this is an optimal carving pumpkin. If you have ever been to a fall festival or walked through a pumpkin patch, the Howden is more than likely the variety you were surrounded by. Howden pumpkins grow symmetrically with a slightly elongated shape and can weigh up to 25 lbs. or more.
