My husband grew the New England Sugar Pie on the edge of the veggie bed and it grew out over the lawn. From about 6 plants we must have harvested over 30 beautiful bright orange pumpkins. They have a wonderful, fine, and sweet flesh with a pleasant pumpkin flavour - not as intense as some other varieties in our experience. A real winner as we use half a pumpkin as a side... almost every night! Will be buying/planting this again next summer for sure!
