I love them, I want to grow them but I can't find the seeds to grow them. Sure I can find plenty of combinations, mixes and other hit and miss seed packets but I want to get the really gnarly ones and none of the others because I don't have alot of room to grow them. I wish I could give you names but every site I find gives a different name for the types I want. Goblin gourds, Crown of thorns, etc.... I want the ones tons of warts,the ones that look like they have wings, ones with the fingerlike curls. Basically the odder the better.

This is the best picture I have found for them. These are the ones I like:
Yellow middle back
Both Orange mid right
Multicolor bottom far right

Stanger is better, I want to dry them all and give them to relatives for whatever reason, after I have kept the ones I like the best for myself of course.

Does anyone have a source for the seeds? [/url]

I usually get my Gourd seeds from Stokes. They have a good selection
