Troll F1 Pumpkin seeds
The Troll is a fun and colorful F1 hybrid that is somewhat oblate, or drum-shaped, with unique turquoise, pink, salmon, and red striations. Each fruit will also bear a button-like structure on its bottom. The Troll pumpkin is not only a gorgeous ornamental but also fares well on the culinary side of things as they are mainly flesh with a small seed cavity, and the flesh is on the savory side with a dry texture. This means it mixes well with other ingredients and won't water down your batters or mixes. You will get 3-4 fruits per vine with each one weighing about 3 1/2 to 6 pounds each
