Long Handle Dipper Gourd Seeds

Long Handle Dipper Gourd

25 Seeds

$ 3.99

Also known as siphon gourd, this long-necked gourd was traditionally used by Pioneers to create long handled dippers for use at the well or for drinking in the house.  This process of growing, curing, and cutting siphon gourds into beautiful and useful dippers is one of the many important Appalachian homesteading skills detailed in the famous Foxfire book series.  Vigorous, vining plants produce abundant yields of gourds with bulbs measuring four to six inches across and necks twelve to fourteen inches long.  Provide a trellis or other support to encourage the development of straight necks.  110 days to harvest.  Each packet contains a minimum of 25 seeds.
