Grow Heirloom Gourds – Plant Turk’s Turban Gourd Seeds

This unique heirloom from the 1820s is related to pumpkins, squash and gourds and looks other-worldly! The bottom half is usually a solid color and the top is generally beige with streaks of reddish orange and dark green. Turk’s Turban can be used in any of your favorite squash recipes – roasted, baked, steamed, in soups or on the grill. Or just enjoy the ornamental use in your fall displays!
