Janis,
I grew these from a regular seed catalog, Harris out of Rochester NY. They
are called Munchkins in their catalog. Quite easy to grow and a nice top
off to my totem pole of pumpkins beginning with a dill 320lber.
I never thought anyone would be interested in the seed but I probably have
enough left to send you some. Just give me a mailing address.
Ciao, John
