Notes
'Jack of Hearts' pumpkin (Cucurbita pepo 'Jack of Hearts') is a vegetable for the food garden and for use as a ground cover. 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 grows at a rapid rate and bears orange flowers from early to late summer. Kids and U-Pick farms will enjoy it.
Pairs well with Brad's Atomic Grape Tomato tomato, Mexican Sour Gherkin cucumber, and Lime basil.
