1713LU Lumina Pumpkin (100 days) Open-pollinated. Cucurbita maxima Originating as a chance sport in one of Hollar’s California pumpkin fields about fifteen years ago, Lumina is a lustrous ivory pumpkin that kids will love, excellent for both carving and painting. Lumina stores well if not exposed to frost, so a face painted on its smooth surface will last for weeks instead of days. Under stress, the fruit may develop blue patches. Fruits 8–10" high average 12 lb, variable depending on growing conditions. Cooks like its sweet yellow flesh. Good for puréeing or making roasted white pumpkin soup. Whether you eat it, decorate it, or both, Lumina is sure to please. PVP.  |
