As I understand it, there were only a limited number of seeds available from this pumpkin. They were distrubuted randomly to a number of lucky recipients from what I think were hundreds of requests. There might be one around that someone will part with, but I think it will be tough to get one. Good luck...

I was lucky enough to recieve one the only problem was I couldn't get it to germinate! You may try asking for the reverse cross of the 1260; The 580 Weir I grew it last season and man was it heavy, too bad I split the blossem end pushing it to hard :(

We threw one in the CWPG Raffle this year. Not many entries yet...chances are pretty decent. Give it some thought.

Craig is out of the 1260's, he only got a few returned to him anyway. The pumpkin went to Germany for display and most of the seed got spread around Europe. Check with some of the German guys, they may have a few.
Good luck...

The 420* Blair was from the 494* Neuville 02 and 752 Blair was from the 845 bobier 2000...not the 1260...the 1260 was crossed into them however.
