Pumpkin Connecticut Field

One of the largest carving pumpkins which can be traced back prior to 1700 and is one of the oldest Heirloom pumpkin varieties.  The vigorous sprawling vines are a heavy yielder, producing large, round, bright orange fruits that are flattened on the ends – ideal for Halloween jack o’ lanterns.  Fruits average 30 – 45 cm in diameter (7-12 kg).  Reduce the fruits to 1-2 per plant if you want the largest pumpkins.
