Little October Pumpkin:
The Pumpkin Little October, 'Cucurbita pepo', is a mini-pumpkin with smooth skin that is ideal for holiday decorations. Looking for an ideal family craft project? After your "mini-gardeners' have helped grow this mini-pumpkin from seed to harvest, let them loose with acrylic paints or permanent markers. Spray with a polyurethane glaze to preserve the creative results. The soil should be kept evenly moist. Harvest before the first light frost or when the pumpkin foliage begins to dry out.
