Hi,
Yes the pumpkins you refer to are Queensland Blues. They are a very common
pumpkin here but are not the only blue/grey pumpkins around. They are
sometimes confused with similar looking species but have a rather
distinctive shape. People seem to like the Blues here but I prefer the
Butternut myself.
If youhave difficulty tracking down the seeds let me know and I'll send
some.
Stewart, ACT
