Dear Laurie, I had a really good vine and it was flowering male flowers first the female flowers were just forming, then came the rain 8 inches in a week our whole property was flooded & all my pumpkins rotted though I had harvested 50 varieties. Windsor black among other varieties that take 120 days, I lost, I was devastated because I didn't have anymore seed.Sorry Any one out there who can supply me some seed I would be ever so grateful, & pay well of course. Sylvia Allan.
