Notes

'Chefini' squash (Cucurbita 'Chefini') is a vegetable for the food garden. 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 blooms from early to late summer, so you can expect flowers for much of the season.

Pairs well with Scotch Bonnet pepper, Cannellini bean, and Asparagus.
