Thanks for the tip Tony. MMMMMM Aussie speak with straight tongue.
There is a big difference between the two actual vines. Wilma is much
shorter but is fatter and so theoretically capable of greater traffic in
the vascular tissue - the zylem and phloem so creating a better pumpkin.
Fred's vine looks darker and more 'set'. Wilma is yellow still and soft
looking and just looks more capable.
