I visited the weigh off at Anoka,Minnesota today. As I was walking towards the pumpkins my eyes were captivated by this bright orange beauty. First question I asked..who grew this beauty? The answer...Mike Haan of Osceola,Wi. Next question..what seed did he grow it from.To my surprise, he grew it from my 1109 Borgers 2016 HD winner. And he also selfed it. There was no debate, Mike Haan headed home with the HD plaque. I feel like a proud parent. This line has now been selfed for so many generations,I think it nearly a sure bet that it will grow pretty orange. I talked with Joe Ailts..he still has some 1109 seeds available and seeds from Mike's HD winner will also probably become available.Contact the St Croix Growers Association if interested.
