These are wild! Lunch Lady produces absolutely huge warted, oblong gourds that easily reach 18 to 22 inches tall and 10 to 12 inches in diameter at the base. The vigorous climbing vines bear multiple wonderful gourds that color up bright orange, red-gold and with an occasional stunning dark green or bicolor.
Amazingly, these strong vines support their heavy fruits happily, decorating any garden trellis or fence! Lunch Lady gourds are unique, fun and make truly awesome seasonal decorations.

CompareUnique Lunch Lady gourds need full sun, rich soil and warm temperatures. For earliest and best yields, hand-pollinate gourds: pick a blooming male flower and dust pollen onto fresh female flowers (the ones with small fruits at the base).
Repeat as new flowers appear. Pollinated fruits start growing larger within several days. Gourds are mature when rinds are tough and the tendril next to the stem turns brown. Harvest with several inches of stem. Dry in a well-ventilated place.
