Corsican Gourd
110 days to maturity. Not like any other gourd, Corsican is round but flat. These pale green fruit can grow up to 12 inches in diameter.
Each packet contains three grams, which is approximately 13-15 seeds.
Planting Instructions: Choose a location that has warm, well-drained and fertile soil. Work in plenty of organic matter and mulch to conserve moisture, as gourds are heavy water consumers.
Sow directly in garden after threat of frost has passed. Seed will not germinate if soil is too cold. Sow one inch deep in hills or rows spaced 24 to 30 inches apart.
These plants are grown like winter squash and require a lot of space and a long season for the fruits to reach full size.
