Clifton Seed Company Highlights Four Varieties
These pepper, onion, and pumpkin varieties feature vibrant colors, strong plants, and good storage potential.
A blocky green-to-red pepper for open field production in the Southeast and Northeast, Bayonet shows good plant vigor to support multiple harvests, high marketable yields, and less culls. The vigorous open bush produces large,
firm, glossy fruit.
Scorpion, a long-day onion, matures in 110 days and produces a medium-large bulb with a blocky-globe shape and a copper-brown color. Scorpion has shown long-term storage potential.
Diablo is a blocky, round pumpkin that is ideal for the Jack-o’-lantern market. Weighing between 18 and 24 pounds, this pumpkin produces early maturing fruit with a dark-orange color, medium-deep ribbing and a strong, dark-green embedded handle.
A new, smaller version of Sakata’s popular Mr. Wrinkles, Mrs. Wrinkles weighs between 16 and 24 pounds and matures in about 90 days. The dark-orange color, thick flesh, and large, thick handles make this a good choice for the Jack-o’-lantern market.
