Notes
'Autumn Gold' pumpkin (Cucurbita pepo 'Autumn Gold') is a vegetable for the food garden. It is typically grown as an annual. It is tender to cold, and the first hard frost will kill it. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, loamy soil. It grows at a rapid rate and blooms from early to late summer. Give the vines plenty of room to spread.
Pairs well with Navy bean, German Pink Tomato tomato, and Lime basil.
