Notes
'Bonbon' buttercup squash (Cucurbita 'Bonbon') is a vegetable for the food garden. It is typically grown as an annual. Frost will kill it, so set it out only after the last frost in spring. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, loamy soil. It belongs to the Cucurbitaceae family of plants. Its flowers appear from early to late summer in the garden.
Pairs well with Green bean, Lovage, Lemon thyme, and Blue Fortune Bill Williams Mountain giant hyssop.
