Notes

'Autumn Wings Blend' gourd (Cucurbita pepo 'Autumn Wings Blend') is a vegetable for the food garden and for use as a ground cover. It is typically grown as an annual. It cannot take cold, and a freeze will end its season. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, loamy soil. It grows at a rapid rate and blooms from early to late summer. The fruits come in a broad array of winged and warted gourds.

Pairs well with Margarita cucumber, Gardener’s Delight tomato, and Dolce Fresca basil.
