New! Ornamental Gourds are divided into two categories. Our Large Fruited Mixture, Lagenaria siceraria, is commonly referred to as Hardshells which may be crafted into whimsical, hanging bird houses. Our Small Fruited Mixture, Cucurbita pepo, is commonly referred to as Ornamentals, commonly seen decorating fall fireplace mantels and dining tables and Thanksgiving cornucopias. Closely related to squash and pumpkins, Gourds need lots of room to ramble and a hot growing site in full sunlight.
