Pumpkin - Crownchestnut - RW90A
Details A cross between Whangaparoa Crown, Green Chestnut and a unknown very large crown like pumpkin. This current generation of seed is 5 years into selection and stabilization, its starting to become quite uniform in both colour/size and in taste, though do expect some variation The idea behind using these three varieties was, green Chestnut had wonderful flavour but thin flesh, Whangaparoa Crown had thick flesh but average to good flavour while the unknown had size, Richard thought combining all three could produce an outstanding new variety. Seed from the best flavoured, large and thick fleshed fruit are used for breeding over successive growing seasons.
