The Wee B Little Pumpkin is an adorable addition to the pumpkin family. With a general diameter of around 3 - 5 inches, and a weight of around 8 to 16 ounces, these little orange beauties are about the size of a baseball. They do resemble their larger family members in appearance, with the bright orange color, rounded shape, and flat bottom, they just happen to fit in your palm!


This little pumpkin grows on smaller bushes with short vines, which is great for gardens that don't have a lot of space. You can use Wee B Little Pumpkins for the same things you would use the larger varieties for. They are perfect for fall cooking, and with so many different recipes out there, they aren't just for pies anymore! Certainly don't hesitate to make your pumpkin pie out of them however. The leftover seeds can be roasted and salted for a tasty snack as well.


Wee B Little Pumpkins are also great for using in your fall decor. Their skin is excellent for painting and their small size makes them great with kids.


Wee B Little Pumpkins can be prone to a powdery mildew and rotting of the blossom, which is usually solved by making sure your soil is drained properly. It is recommended to create a raised mound to plant them in if your soil doesn't drain well enough. Other options could be to grow the plants vertically up a stake or trellis, or placing straw under the plants. Allowing better airflow will reduce the risk of powdery mildew to the leaves and the rest of the plant.


These plants are also prone to pests such as squash bugs, squash vine borers, and cucumber beetles, to name a few. One way to help avoid pests would be to place floating row covers over the plants to help keep bugs away. A good, yet non harmful pesticide would also be a good idea.


Have fun with Wee B Little Pumpkins in your own garden this year!
