Pacific Giant

This is a new variety from Holland, bred from the famous ‘Dills Atlantic Giant’ pumpkin. We can’t guarantee exactly how big the pumkins will be – as it depends so much on the weather and soil, but they really should be very large: we got 27.1kg in the back garden without any special care.

Others got about 50kg! What is really nice is that the plants themselves don’t actually take up that much space, and the squash have a good flavour, so you do get to eat them as well. The flesh is crisp and sweet and can even be eaten raw like carrot sticks, or is delicious roasted or cooked in the usual manner. You definitely will not run short of pumpkin soup with this one…
