About  Penguin Gourd

Also known as a "Calabash", these gourds are 5 inches in diameter, 12 inches long, and shaped like a penguin. Ideal for craft projects as a little black and white paint turns this gourd into a penguin easily. Gourd plants are extremely vigorous and require a long, warm growing season, ranging from 95 to 120 days to maturity. Harvest before a frost. 





Sow seeds directly in full sun after the soil has warmed. Train the vine onto a trellis or fence to save space and to produce neater, more rounded shapes.
