The pumpkin seed comes from the pumpkin plant from the genus Cucurbita. The plants are mainly vining, though there are few bushing vareities. The plants have large green fuzzy leaves. The vines can reach 12 feet and length. The vines grow male and female flowers which are yellow in color. The pollen comes from the male flower, and into the female flower which after a successful pollination begins to grow the pumpkin. See the round ball at the base of this female flower? After pollination, that ball begins to grow. The flower dies and falls off, but that ball grows and becomes the pumpkin.

What is the heaviest Pumpkin?
In 2012 Ron Wallace had his 2009 pound pumpkin weighed at the Topsfield Fair in Massachusetts. Ron grew his record ONE TON pumpkin on the 1725 Harp seed and crossed it with the 1409 Miller.Here is an explanation of seed crossing. The first seed listed is the seed that will actually grow the pumpkin. This is the female and cross it means that someone takes a male flower and pollinates (usually hand pollinates) the flower(female) that you want to grow. For example:1725Harp seed (female flower that will be the pumpkin) and crossed it with the 1409 Miller (male flower). You get 1724Wallacex 1409Miller. If someone pollinates a female flower with a male flower from the same seed it is self an example would be 1725 Harp x self if indeed someone did only plant one seed.The number listed 2009 is the weight of the original pumpkin from where the seed was taken. The word after is the person's name or nickname that grew it. So the 2009 Wallace was a 2009lb pumpkin that a man named Wallace grew. It is done this way to trace the lineage of pumpkins back several generations. In fact the name Wallace is iconic in growing giant pumpkins that when you see this name it is most likely going to be Ron Wallace from Massachusetts.
