Winter Gourd 'Wax Boy'

Wax Boy produces dark green gourds that develop a waxy coating as they mature. This variety produces yields of high-quality fruit that weigh around 25-30lbs once mature, though they can weigh up to 40lbs. 

Harvest your gourd once the thick, waxy coating has developed and the fruit has reached its mature size.

Winter Gourds grow best in warm temperatures with full sun and fertile, moist, well-drained soil. They need a long time to mature (120+ days) and may not ripen until fall.
