Does anyone know where I can get some odd pumpkin seeds, like the ones that look like they have warts all over them or very weird shaped ones? really anything that just looks strange. Any help is appreciated!!!!

Galeaux pumpkins from rares seeds.com is a great place. I order from them for the last 7 yrs. they keep growing and growing. Sign up for their free catalog.

But order early they have a habbit of selling out early.


I try to order and plant one new/odd variety of pumpkina yr.
Here are some of my favs Keep in mind that over the yrs I have tried over 50 rare types of pumpkins and winter squash
American tonda green with yellow stripes 5-12lbs
Queensland Blue plant more seeds lower germ rates
MArnhia di chiggi
Juane de Gros Paris pumpkin its a giant cinderella pumpkin.
Jarradale it was ok but queensland is better
Long Island cheese
Flat White Boer I couldnt get a mature fruit this yr.
It seemed like a ok pumpkin type.
Yokohoma a blcak Japanese pumpkin 3-5 pounds max. The
down side to this plant is it takes up 150 sq ft and you may only get 2-3 pumpkins. But the black color(like a coal black color) and wrinkly feel makes it very cool lookin. I have seen em in a light ash color still very cool .Just don't expect many fruits. but the ones you get are very pretty.


One of my favs is a blue pumpkin(I was lucky to be given seeds a couple yrs a go and have a couple seeds to plant in 09 very rare, I have not found it in any seed catalog.)
The blue pumpkin has salmon colored spots on the blue pumpkin very pretty. Hope to have seeds to give away in 09

I am hoping to get my seed invetory up in 09 to be able to give some of these seeds away.
But with some fruits i may only get reliable seeds.

Don't forget the Rouge vif d' Etampes aka Cinderella. They're attractive, prolific, and tasty. Also have to cast another vote for the Galeux d'Eysines. I really enjoyed growing it this year.

From its heft it is a very dense thick walled thing (it's a eating pumpkin).

I crossed it with the 711 Bosworth, which before it blew apart was a very vigorous white fruit. Email me if you are interested in this bastardized seed. I'll send you seed when I open it up (I'm saving it to eat this winter).
Disclaimer: I really have no idea how these will turn out, but to my knowledge it will be something no one else has grown before. I know I'm planting it!
