W1467 Crocodile-Skin Pumpkin, 5 Seeds

Variety characteristics:

• W1467 Crocodile-Skin Chestnut Pumpkin (Cucurbita moschata) is a distinctive tropical squash selected for vigorous vines, repeat fruiting and exceptionally textured dark green fruit. Each flattened, rounded pumpkin develops dense ridges and raised warty markings that resemble crocodile skin, creating outstanding visual appeal for specialty produce displays and home gardens.
Young fruits are glossy green with a thin, crisp rind and may be harvested as tender cooking squash. When fully mature, the rind deepens to nearly black-green and develops a light gray bloom. The mature flesh offers a dry, smooth and pleasantly sweet texture characteristic of Asian chestnut-type pumpkins.
Fruits typically weigh approximately 2.2–4.4 pounds. They are well suited to steaming, roasting, soups, savory dishes, desserts and baked preparations. The vigorous vines perform especially well in warm climates and can continue setting fruit when temperature, pollination and moisture conditions remain favorable.
