Small Sugar Pumpkin

Garden Seeds

Small Sugar Pumpkin is the classic heirloom pumpkin that turns a summer garden into a fall celebration. Known as a traditional “pie pumpkin,” this variety produces smooth, deep orange fruits with sweet, flavorful flesh that’s perfect for baking, roasting, soups, and homemade pumpkin purée.

These vigorous vines grow quickly once warm weather arrives, stretching out across the garden and producing cheerful pumpkins just in time for the harvest season. By late summer and early fall, you’ll have beautiful pumpkins ready for the kitchen  or the front porch.

Small Sugar Pumpkins are productive, dependable, and surprisingly easy to grow, making them a great choice for gardeners who want to experience the fun of growing their own fall harvest.

Planting Tips:

• Start: Direct sow outdoors after the last frost once soil has warmed
• Depth: 1″ deep
• Spacing: 36–48″ apart
• Germination: 7–10 days
• Light: Full sun
• Soil: Rich, well-draining soil

Pumpkins grow on long, wandering vines that love sunshine and space to spread out. Water regularly throughout the growing season and harvest when the pumpkins turn a rich orange and the rinds have hardened. Direct sow in late spring or early summer and expect a harvest by late summer or early fall.
