White Boer is an easygoing heritage variety known for its sturdy growth and large, flat fruits. It tolerates heat and drought well and has firm, pleasantly sweet golden-orange flesh as well as an excellent storage life. Grow this exuberant pumpkin variety where it has lots of space to send out runners and expect 4 to 5kg, fairly uniform pumpkins at harvest time. This South African variety performs very well under Australian conditions.

  • Growing Information

    How to Sow

    Feel free to adjust your sowing date for an early crop provided you have a warm spot to germinate your pumpkin seeds in pots. Sow one seed per pot and keep well-watered. Once up, they will grow quickly, so be ready for planting!

    How to Harvest

    Cut your pumpkins when they give off a hollow sound when you rap on the skin. Give them as much stem as you can. If the skin is undamaged they will keep very well, particularly if left to cure in a sunny spot for about a week.
