Jarrahdale Heirloom Pumpkin
Growing Jarrahdale Heirloom Pumpkin
‘Jarrahdale’ is an heirloom pumpkin prized for its slate-gray rind, deeply ribbed shape, and excellent culinary quality. Medium to large fruits reveal richly colored orange flesh with a dense, sweet texture, creating a striking contrast between exterior and interior.
Start ‘Jarrahdale’ indoors for transplanting. Plant seeds about ½ to 1 inch deep, space plants 18 to 36 inches apart, and grow in full sun. This heat-tolerant variety performs especially well through warm conditions.
Ready to harvest in about 95 days, pick pumpkins once the slate-gray rind is fully developed and fruits have reached maturity.
Sweet, dense, and decorative, ‘Jarrahdale’ is excellent for soups, roasting, everyday cooking, fall displays, and storage.
