Pumpkin

I have a small space, so I’ve taken to growing my pumpkins up a sturdy, arched trellis made of concrete reinforcing steel ( just bent over). I like the smaller ‘New England Pie’ variety from Kings Seeds.

Megan Patterson, Whangaparāoa Butternut is really tasty and easy to grow. I grow mine up a wire tower that I made from wire mesh made into a cylinder. I then dig a shallow hole in the ground the same width as the cylinder, “plant” the cylinder and grow plants on the outside of it. Carol Cox, Auckland
