Territorial Seed Company Jill Be Little Pumpkin

These miniature pumpkins are quite compact, typically weighing around half a pound each. Their small, uniform size makes them ideal for tabletop autumn decor.

While they are highly prized for their aesthetic appeal and long shelf life as decorations, they are edible. You can use them in the kitchen just as you would other small pumpkin varieties.

Because they grow on productive vines, you should space your plants 3 to 4 feet apart, with rows spaced 4 to 6 feet apart. Ensure they have access to full sun, which means 6 to 8 hours of direct light daily.

Jill Be Little pumpkins require approximately 100 days to reach maturity from the time of planting. Plan your garden timeline accordingly to ensure they are ready for your autumn displays.

These plants are specifically bred with resistance to powdery mildew. While no plant is entirely immune, this variety is much more reliable and resilient against common fungal issues than many other pumpkins.

Yes, because this is an open-pollinated variety, you can save the seeds from your harvest to plant in future seasons. They will grow true to type, meaning the offspring will be identical to the parent plant.
