Shopping for Laughing Blue Halloween Pumpkins Seeds

The fabled BLUE Pumpkin? Does it really exist? Have you ever seen a packet of BLUE Pumpkin seeds in a garden shop?

We think they really do exist.

Grown to smile, eerily, one Halloween night –

Now THAT would be a truly frightful sight.

 

So undercover of our new aquaponics unit, we will see
if we can find some seeds and throw some light on this fabled blue variety.

“There’s a blue strain of carrot – potato too,
for a totally ghoulish vegetable stew.
Chop them all up and put in a pot
then bring to the boil with some trouble and toil.

Close the mix tight in a hay box at dawn
till the taste of the darkness within, that’s unborn,
gets released to the night as you open the door –
and forget all your fears as you ask for some more.”
