Notes

'Jersey Golden Acorn' squash (Cucurbita 'Jersey Golden Acorn') is a vegetable for the food garden. It is typically grown as an annual. It is not cold-hardy and will not survive freezing temperatures. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, loamy soil. It blooms from early to late summer. Plant it outdoors after the last frost has passed, since cold weather will harm it.

Pairs well with Margarita cucumber, Ghost pepper, and Asparagus.
