Hooligan Hybrid Pumpkin F1

Be sure to check out our Pumpkin Growing Guide to learn how to successfully grow pumpkins at home. Hooligan Pumpkin is a hybrid, miniature pumpkin with a light-yellow and orange mottled pattern. These beautiful little pumpkins are mainly used for ornamental purposes, but also make a great little snack. Fruits are 2" tall and average 3" to 4" in diameter.
