Lemonade F1 Pumpkin seeds
New this year! The Lemonade F1 was developed by HM Clause and is an attractive yellow variety that makes for an excellent carving pumpkin. Each pumpkin has a uniform shape, and medium ribbing, and will reach a color somewhere in between a golden rod and saffron color. The semi-vine habit of this variety also makes it a compact variety for those short on garden space. Each pumpkin can reach up to 18 pounds. This hybrid variety also has intermediate powdery mildew resistance.
