I'll have to check out Walmart. I hope they have it in store. I hate ordering stuff from Amazon... deliveries back here are a pain in the summer, and a real crap shoot in the winter.

I believe these naked bear pumpkins could use some extra coverage, lift, and separation. Of course, then they would be less naked. I have attached a picture to demonstrate.

They look delicious.

I have a pumpkin growing out of the compost pile with one ripe pumpkin and several smaller ones that have plenty of time to mature before frost. It sprouted from seeds that were put in the pile last fall.

Compost plants are some of the garden's best surprises.
