Pumpkin Jarrahdale Seeds
25 seeds
A classic Australian pumpkin variety, Jarrahdale produces large ribbed fruits with sweet orange flesh and excellent storage qualities. Its smooth texture and rich flavour make it perfect for roasting, soups, and baking.
How To Grow
Sow seeds 12mm deep directly into their final position. Sow 4–5 seeds in clumps, later thinning to the two strongest seedlings. Allow 100cm between rows and 40–50cm between clumps. Once young plants have 5–6 leaves, pinch out the growing tips to encourage side shoots. Grow alongside a fence if space is limited. Keep well-watered and enrich soil with organic matter or complete fertiliser before sowing.

Important Note
These seeds may be treated with a fungicide (Thiram or Apron XL). Do not eat the seeds or feed them to animals. Fungicide treatment is an AQIS requirement for certain varieties of seeds. It does not affect crop quality or harm beneficial insects such as bees. If your packet has been treated it will be clearly marked, and the seeds dyed a distinct colour.
