North Georgia Candy Roaster hubbard squash

Garden uses

Notes

'North Georgia Candy Roaster' hubbard squash (Cucurbita maxima 'North Georgia Candy Roaster') 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 climbs and grows at a rapid rate, so give the vines room to spread. It blooms from early to late summer, and this heirloom has fantastic flavor.

Pairs well with Gimlet cucumber, Dolce Fresca basil, and Berkeley Tie-Dye Pink Tomato tomato.
