You are buying 18+ FRENCH HEIRLOOM BULE (pronounced "boo-lay") WARTY GOURD SEEDS PLUS very detailed instructions on growing and drying them. These are fresh seeds that I have checked for germination.
Like all hard-shelled gourds, these can be used for all kinds of craft projects, but are wonderful just dried and left natural with their apple shape and warty exterior, they're great just as they are! The gourds get about 8" tall and 5"-6" across.
Each vine will get up to 20 feet and can grow on a fence, trellis or other sturdy structure or can grow on the ground. Requires full sun and about 100 - 115 days of warm weather to mature. Each vine will get several gourds on it. Full growing instructions are included with the seeds, as well as instructions for drying the gourds.
Gourds cross pollinate easily. All my gourd seeds are open pollinated, but to reduce the chances of cross pollination, I only grow 3 different types of gourds (at any one time) so that I can keep them AT LEAST 400' apart to reduce chances of cross pollination. If you buy seeds from BULE gourds that were grown near other gourds, you may not get BULE gourds from your vines! ASK BEFORE YOU BID!
