Pumpkin ‘Greystone’
Greystone is a large-fruited, grey-skinned pumpkin with a high yield. It sets fruit close to the crown and along the runners and can be planted at a little higher density than other grey varieties. The flesh is dark orange and only a small cavity is taken for the seeds. It stores well too.
