Ornamental pumpkin "Andelska kridla" (mix)

Decorative pumpkin "Andelska kridla" (mix).
Amazingly cute pumpkins!
The stems grow with amazing speed and in one season can reach 6 m or more, which allows the plant to be used in vertical gardening.
Decorative pumpkin is light-loving - therefore, in order to get abundant flowering and a large number of decorative fruits, you need to choose places with maximum lighting.
The long lashes of the plant, clinging with tendrils, will quickly climb up the support and can perfectly decorate a mesh fence, decorate an arch or gazebo, creating the necessary shade and coolness...
In the second half of summer, pumpkin reaches its peak of decorative value, allowing you to admire the bright large flowers and unusually shaped fruits.
The size of the fruit of a decorative pumpkin rarely exceeds 10-15 cm, and the shape can be either round, star-shaped, bottle-shaped: with both smooth and bumpy skin, the shades of which vary from white to yellow, orange or green.
The striped, spotted or two-coloured fruits of decorative pumpkins look the most fun. These small fruits of cheerful colours look very cute on the plant itself, although decorative pumpkins are often grown in order to collect ripe fruits in the fall, dry them and use them to create original compositions (for example, with dried flowers).
To keep these cute pumpkins for a long time, you must follow two rules:
1. they must be fully ripe, that is, with very rough and thick skin
2. collected before the first autumn frosts.
(To prevent their colour from losing their brightness, it is best to store decorative pumpkins away from direct sunlight).
