Notes
'Green Machine' zucchini squash (Cucurbita pepo 'Green Machine') is a vegetable grown for summer squash harvests in a food garden or a large container. 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 grows fast and is ready to pick in 45 days. Yellow and green flowers open from early to late summer.
Pairs well with Armenian cucumber, Dark Opal basil, and Cilantro.
