Notes
'Burgess Buttercup' squash (Cucurbita 'Burgess Buttercup') 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 blooms from early to late summer. The seed is open-pollinated, and the squash takes 115 days to mature.
Pairs well with Carmen pepper, Diva cucumber, and Ellagance Purple lavender.
