Pale Blue-Green Pumpkins: Likely Jarrahdale or Blue Doll (Cucurbita maxima), known for their slate-blue rinds, deep ribs, and sweet, dense orange flesh.

Tan, “Peanut-Encrusted” Pumpkins: Galeux d’Eysines (often called the peanut pumpkin). The warty, peanut-shell-like growths are sugar deposits caused by skin cracking as sugars build up in the rind.

Buff / Muted Tan Ribbed Pumpkin: A Long Island Cheese or cured Musquée de Provence (Cucurbita moschata), prized for smooth, dense pie-baking flesh.

Vibrant Red-Orange Ribbed Pumpkins: Rouge Vif d’Étampes (the classic “Cinderella” pumpkin), a French heirloom with a flattened, deeply lobed shape.

Dark Mottled Green Squashes: Deep-green winter squashes, typically Kabocha or Buttercup varieties, known for dry, nutty, sweet flesh.

Small Whites and Stripes (edges): Ornamental mini gourds and pumpkins, such as Baby Boo and Sweet Dumpling.

I have only ever met kind, helpful staff who have answered every silly question I've asked them over the years. Whether it be garden pests, fertilizing, or growing something new, I always know that I can get quality advice alongside quality products. I particularly like their selection of soil options. Plus, they have this little shopping cart sometimes that my little guys can push around. They've done more for a next generation of gardeners with that cart than I have with years of patient instruction.

They had what I needed locally at a decent price. Bought a bunch of veggie seedlings and some soil. Shop local!

Larson’s Garden Center has quickly become one of our absolute favorite places to visit, and it's so much more than just a nursery, it's a cornerstone of our community. As a family-owned and operated business that’s been lovingly passed down from father to daughter, Larson’s radiates the kind of care, pride, and personal touch that you simply don’t find at big box stores. That’s one of the many reasons we love supporting them. Their selection is outstanding healthy, vibrant plants, beautiful flowers, and unique varieties you won’t find elsewhere. Whether we're planting a seasonal garden, looking for indoor greenery, or picking up some herbs for the kitchen, Larson’s always has exactly what we need. And their prices are fair, with frequent promotions and sales that make it easy to stock up without breaking the bank. We’re also really excited to see them branching out into more events and community gatherings. It’s wonderful to see a business not only grow but also bring people together. Their events add so much life and energy to the space, and we can’t wait to see what they come up with next! We’re lucky to have them in our area, and we’ll continue to support them for years to come. Highly recommend to anyone looking for quality plants, expert advice, and the warmth of a truly local business.

I honestly didn't see anything that was better than a big box store. It looks like they ship in "proven winners" same as everywhere else. A small Basil plant was $5.99 and a little plastic watering can was 12.99!
