Finally popping in on this thread because I am so excited to share a pic of my French heirloom pumpkin, Rouge Vif D' Etampes. My yard space is at a premium but I can't help growing at least one pumpkin plant every year. Pinetree Seeds calls this a vigorous vine. They aren't kidding. But what a beautiful pumpkin! Oh and yeah that's me looking super awkward holding the pumpkin.... I'm only in the pic so you can get a sense of scale.
