Pumpkin – Decorative ‘Dragonfire’

Description

A one-of-a-kind variety with bold coloring, unique texture, and a mix of flat and round shapes. About two-thirds of the fruit are flat and perfect for stacking, while the rest are rounded for added visual variety. Some fruit are black with red marbling, others red with black marbling, all averaging 12 inches wide by 7 inches tall. A true attention-grabber. Great for decorating the front porch! Also can be eaten like other pumpkins (soups, pies, etc). 90 days. Photo courtesy of Holmes Seed.

Care: Plant 5-6′ apart in rows 6-8′ apart in full sun. Space more widely and remove all but one fruit from each vine for the largest pumpkins. Leave on the vine as long as possible, until rinds have hardened. Bring in after the first light frost, before rains.
