Speckled Swan Gourd seeds
SKU: SSG445
These are so much fun to grow! We grew our first one last year and were shocked at how big it got! The Speckled Swan Gourd is bulbous with a long neck. The exterior is smooth and dark green in color with light green-yellow mottling. The neck can vary between straight or curved depending on growing conditions. We trained the vine to climb up some cattle panels and ended up with a huge gourd hanging down, from the top of our garden! We kept bumping our heads into it. Like most gourds, these can be used for painting, sculptures, bowls, etc.
