Sowing Instructions:
Sow Pumpkin Zombie seeds outdoors after the risk of frost has passed, in well-drained, fertile soil. Plant the seeds about 3-4 cm deep, spacing them 1-1.5 metres apart to allow plenty of room for their sprawling vines to grow. Space the rows 1.5-2 metres apart to ensure optimal airflow and fruit development. Pumpkin plants thrive in full sun and prefer warm, moist conditions, so ensure the soil remains consistently moist but well-drained. Regular watering, especially during the fruiting stage, will promote a healthy harvest.
This large, hearty variety matures in approximately 90-100 days, producing an abundant crop of large, unique pumpkins with smooth, white skins that gradually turn a pale shade of blue as they ripen. The flesh is thick and sweet, making it perfect for a variety of culinary uses, from roasted dishes to pumpkin soups, or even traditional pumpkin pie. Kew VegeTable Pumpkin Zombie is a fantastic choice for gardeners looking for an unusual yet reliable pumpkin that delivers both in terms of size and flavour, making it a must-grow for both decorative and culinary purposes.
