Pumpkin Jack Be Little is a lovely little pumpkin that is very endearing, remarkably miniature and averaging 8 to 9cm in diameter, and weighing in around 280 to 400 grams.

With a compact, semi-bush growth habit the plants grow to just 2m and are good for close spacing. They produce softball sized pumpkins with sturdy spineless handles, perfect for small hands to hold.

They take around 12 weeks to harvest, each plant producing an average of 9 fruits per plant. They makes an ideal climbing plant for any garden and look wonderful grown over tepees.

Roast whole to enjoy the sweet, golden flesh or stuff for a real gourmet treat. They can be easily be made into an edible and festive vessel for soup by roasting the mini-pumpkins and carving them into bowls.

Delicious and decorative, the globe-shaped, wee pumpkins are the perfect size for children to grow and use as a table decoration, for decorating indoors or outdoors in autumn.

Slightly flat-round shape like a normal pumpkin, the bright orange rind is smooth enough for painting..
