I planted these heirloom gourds in my backyard, and they�ve exceeded my expectations. The flavor is rich and nutty, perfect for fall recipes. Very happy with how many fruits each plant produced.
I�ve planted heirloom seeds before with mixed results, but these were reliable. Almost all sprouted, grew healthy vines, and produced flavorful gourds. A real treat for the kitchen.
If you enjoy homegrown produce, these seeds are fantastic. The gourds are full of flavor and the plants grew vigorously. Harvesting was easy, and the fruits kept well for weeks.
The gourds from these seeds are perfect for autumn dishes. I roasted some with spices, and they were absolutely delicious. The plants were easy to manage, even in my small garden.
These heirloom gourds were a joy to grow. The vines thrived, and the fruits had a robust, nutty flavor. It�s rare to find seeds that perform this well straight out of the packet.
