It seems that the earlier reports of the non-exisistance of the Weir 1260's were a bit premature, it seems that some did finally make it across the POND from Germany, however do to the overwhelming requests for them they have all been allocated and now are as scarce as "Hens Teeth"

so the 1260 line will go on!!

I got my bubble-pac from Craig today & a letter was enclosed telling about the scarcness of his seed. I'll tell you the highlights. He said the pumpkin was sold to a company in Switzerland & they had a agreement to send back 100 seeds. At the end of Janurary he recieved 86 seeds back & since they didn't harvest the seeds until mid December only 77 seeds were good. Then he explained how he dist. them. After keeping some for himself & his friends he had 33 left to fill 175 bubble-pacs. He spread all the pacs on the floor & let his daughter walk around and drop a 1260 at random on pacs ( that is about the fairest way to do it).
Now the answer to the million dollar question " my pac had a seed in it"
I kinda feel like Charlie finding a golden ticket on Willie Wonka...........Paul

Thank you Mr. Weir, and your Pumpkin "Nut" friend who showed you that Post! The picture clearly shows your 1260.4 was an orange beauty. I will do my best with the 1260 seed you have given me. Now what to cross it with??? 1262 maybe?
