Orangita F1 Pumpkin seeds

SKU: OSP552

Spanglish for "little orange", the Orangita F1 pumpkin is an extremely attractive mini pumpkin. The orange is vibrant and almost glowing. These are bigger than jack-be-little pumpkins, their shape is more uniform, and symmetrical, and the exterior is smoother while having deeper ribbing than a jack-be-little.

 

Orangitas have intermediate resistance to powdery mildew and produce excellent yields of 1 to 1-1/2 lb. fruit They are a semi-bush variety and pair well with the Midnight and Gooligan pumpkins if you are looking to make an orange, black, and white display. These do well in larger containers, but will also thrive in raised beds or when sown in rows or mounds. These are also great for the trellis.
