Butternut Pumpkin is a compact but productive variety with a semi-bush habit. Its neatly club-shaped fruits have a creamy tan exterior and bright orange flesh, so they look as good as they taste.

Known for its rich, nutty sweetness, the butternut pumpkin is a top choice for roasting with garlic or steaming. It shines as an alternative to traditional pumpkins in hearty soups and savoury pies, but it’s versatile; its smooth texture makes for an indulgent puree, too. And with minimal seeds, every fruit is packed with usable flesh, so there's little waste.

Plant your pumpkins in full sun with good drainage, and in no time at all you’ll be able to enjoy this versatile vegetable.
