'Blue Prince F1' pumpkin (Cucurbita maxima 'Blue Prince F1') is a vegetable for the food garden. It is typically grown as an annual. It is not cold-hardy and will not survive freezing temperatures. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, loamy soil. It climbs and grows at a rapid rate, so give the vines room to spread. It blooms from early to late summer.

Pairs well with German Pink Tomato tomato, Dolce Fresca basil, and Cilantro.
