I have never grown pumpkins before and was beyond thrilled with the results of my first effort to do so. The vines were planted down on the bottom terrace among the fruit trees – little did I know they would take over above the terrace and even snake into my neighbors yard below. Several times I had to go down and cut vines from growing into their yard. It has been so fun to have so many to place here, there and everywhere in my yard. For decorating this year, I only had to purchase a few gourds for my dining room centerpiece. Will definitely be planting them again next year. Plan to add white minis – could not find them for this year. Did I mention that I LOVE me some FALL!!!!!
