One of the most popular pumpkins in the world, and the one that wins most non-pumpkin eaters over, 'Waltham Butternut' is originally from Waltham Massachusetts in the USA where it was developed by Charles Leggett and grown in the Waltham Field Station in the 1940s. The flesh was described as smooth as butter and sweet as a nut. Few could disagree and they are undeniably one of the most popular culinary pumpkins in the world today.

Miles W. ★★★★★

Finally got these planted and they sprouted faster than any butternut I've tried before. The description says it's the one that wins over non-pumpkin eaters, so I'm excited to see if my family agrees.

John M. ★★★★☆

The seeds sprouted reliably, and I'm impressed with how quickly the vines took off. The flesh is definitely sweeter than your typical grocery store pumpkin.

Richard ★★★★☆

The seeds arrived in good shape, and the packet’s description about converting non-pumpkin eaters is spot on—the flesh is sweeter and smoother than typical carving varieties. I’m giving four stars only because germination took a few extra days than the label suggested, but the vines are vigorous now
