Wanted Nigerian Bushel Gourd Seed

Louisville, KY

I am working as a volunteer at a Historial Home which serves as a Museum and teaching center. I am helping develop and plan several period garden areas. I thought that growing the Nigerian Bushel Gourd would be a good African/American representation. Anyone have seed for this or could tell me where I might locate some. Thank You.

Jo, I have the Bushel Gourd seed as well. We had read about the Nigerian variety and thought we would try to find it. Thanks.

Gary the only seed supplier that I can think of that would know of anyone that has Nigerian bushel seeds would be Harry Hurley

They are one of the harder gourds to try and grow, and as far as I know, he quit selling those seeds a while back. I will ask around and see if I can dig something up for you, but the chances are slim.
