it was a mini pumpkin at least that is what it said on the packet. about 5 or 6 inches across. The flesh was white so we will try again in the autumn when they are usually picked. The idea was to roast it along with a load of other veggies and then blend them for soup. Looking up ideas on the internet I came across stuffed mini pumpkins so we tried that instead, turned out like a wet stuffed marrow that watered down the taste of all the filling, the dogs like it though.
